Fig. 8. SMURF1 promotes ubiquitination of UVRAG and regulates ATG5/Wnt5a to suppress HLC differentiation of mouse BMSCs.

A RT-qPCR to determine the expression of UVRAG, ATG5, and Wnt5a after overexpressing SMURF1. B The expression of UVRAG, ATG5, and Wnt5a after overexpression of SMURF1 detected by Western blot analysis. C The binding between SMURF1 and UVRAG assessed by Co-IP analysis. D The effect of SMURF1 on the ubiquitination of UVRAG measured by Co-IP analysis. E The effect of concomitant treatment of rapamycin or recombinant Wnt5a and sh-UVRAG on the expression of ATG5, Wnt5a assessed by Western blot analysis. F RT-qPCR to determine the expression of hepatocyte-related genes in BMSCs after 14 days of simultaneous treatment of rapamycin or recombinant Wnt5a and sh-UVRAG. G ELISA assay to detect the ALB content in culture supernatant of BMSCs after 14 days of concomitant treatment of rapamycin or recombinant Wnt5a and sh-UVRAG. H PAS staining to detect the accumulation of glycogen in BMSCs after 14 days of simultaneous treatment of rapamycin or recombinant Wnt5a and sh-UVRAG. *p < 0.05 vs. BMSCs transfected with oe-NC/sh-NC; #p < 0.05 vs. BMSCs transfected with sh-UVRAG. The cell experiments were repeated three times.
