MED12-mutant UFs are characterized by aberrant R-loop accrual and activated replication stress signaling. (A and B) Representative IHC staining with (A) R-loop specific S9.6 and (B) pATR (Ser428) specific antibodies. Shown are images from 3 patient-matched tissue sample sets (PT1-PT3), each set comprising MM, MED12-wild-type (M12 WT) and MED12-mutant (M12 MT) UF tissue. (C) Quantified expression of S9.6 and phosphorylated (activated) replication stress signaling markers pATR (Ser428), pRPA (Ser33), pCHK1 (Ser317), pCDC25A (Ser124), and pATM (s1981). Data were quantified from IHC analysis of 10 patient-matched tissue sample sets. Stained sections were scanned using an Aperio ScanScope® CS system, and individual nuclei as well as nuclear and cytoplasmic marker localization were identified and quantified using Aperio ImageScope software. Signals were normalized to the number of nuclei in each section. Statistical significance was calculated using One-Way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s Post hoc test, **p ≤ 0.01; *p ≤ 0.05.
