(A) Cells were treated with 10 μM BYK for 30 minutes prior to cisplatin (CDDP) treatment. 2 μM CDDP was added for 6 hours as indicated. DMSO was used as a vehicle control. RNA-seq libraries were prepared following cell collection.
(B) Venn diagram depicting differentially expressed genes from RNA-seq in HeLa cells treated with CDDP (green), BYK (red), or BYK + CDDP (blue).
(C) Heat map representation of the genes that were either up-regulated or down-regulated after treatment of HeLa cells with DMSO (vehicle), CDDP alone, BYK alone, or both.
(D) Box plots showing the fold change in expression for the up-regulated and down-regulated subsets of genes. Boxes marked with different letters are significantly different from each other (Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test; p < 2.2 × 10−16). (E) Gene ontology analysis for BYK + CDDP up-regulated and down-regulated genes. The gene counts in each term and the log10(p-value) for each term are shown.
