Fig. 5. OGT augments glycosylation of KEAP1, and increases its stability and expression, consequently promoting the ubiquitination and degradation of NRF2, and thereby inhibiting DDP resistance of OC cells.

A Western blot assay of the expression and quantitative analysis of KEAP1 in A2780 and A2780/DDP cells overexpressing OGT normalized to β-actin. B Co-IP assay of the interaction between OGT and KEAP1 in A2780 cells or A2780/DDP cells. C Co-IP assay of KEAP1 glycosylation in A2780 cells or A2780/DDP cells. D Co-IP assay of the ubiquitination modification level of NRF2 in A2780 cells or A2780/DDP cells. E Western blot assay of changes in KEAP1 glycosylation in A2780 cells or A2780/DDP cells. F Co-IP assay of the ubiquitination degree of NRF2 in A2780 cells or A2780/DDP cells. A2780/DDP cells were treated with oe-NC + sh-NC, oe-OGT, oe-OGT + sh-KEAP1 or oe-OGT + oe-NRF2. G Western blot assay of the expression and quantitative analysis of OGT, KEAP1, and NRF2 in A2780/DDP cells normalized to β-actin. H CCK-8 assay of the change of A2780/DDP cell viability. I Western blot assay of cleaved caspase-3 expression and quantitative analysis in A2780/DDP cells normalized to β-actin. J Western blot assay of PCNA expression and quantitative analysis in A2780/DDP cells normalized to β-actin. A2780 cells were treated with oe-NC + sh-NC, sh-OGT, sh-OGT + oe-KEAP1 or sh-OGT + sh-NRF2. K Western blot assay determination of KEAP1, OGT, and NRF2 expression and quantitative analysis in A2780 cells normalized to β-actin. L CCK-8 assay assessment of A2780 cell viability. M Western blot assay of the cleaved caspase-3 expression and quantitative analysis in A2780 cells normalized to β-actin. N Western blot assay of PCNA expression and quantitative analysis in A2780 cells normalized to β-actin. Cell experiments were repeated three times independently. *p < 0.05 versus A2780/DDP or A2780 cells treated with oe-NC, A2780/DDP or A2780 cells treated with sh-NC or A2780/DDP or A2780 cells treated with oe-NC + sh-NC. #p < 0.05 versus A2780/DDP cells treated with oe-OGT or A2780 cells treated with sh-OGT.
