Figure Lengend Snippet: Downregulation of the FA/BRCA gene network in prelamin A‐expressing cells. a) The expression of FANCD2 and RAD51 in ZMPSTE24 ‐knockdown cells was measured by western blotting. n = 3. b) mRNA levels of FA/BRCA genes in ZMPSTE24 ‐knockdown cells were measured by qPCR. n = 3. c) Western blotting was used to measure the expression of FANCD2 and RAD51 in cells treated with FTI (3 µ m , 48 h), LPV (20 µ m , 6 days) or LPV + FTI. The farnesylated prelamin A generated by LPV treatment (lane 3) migrated more rapidly than the nonfarnesylated prelamin A generated by FTI treatment (lane 2 and lane 4). n = 3. d) The expression of RAD51 in asynchronous, S‐phase‐synchronized and M‐phase‐synchronized control and ZMPSTE24 ‐knockdown cells was measured by western blotting. Asyn, asynchronous. n = 3. e) The expression of FANCD2 in asynchronous, G1‐phase‐synchronized, S‐phase‐synchronized and M‐phase‐synchronized control and ZMPSTE24 ‐knockdown cells was measured by western blotting. Asyn, asynchronous. n = 3. f) SA‐β‐gal staining of IMR90 fibroblasts at early (P6) and late (P20) passages. Scale bar: 100 µm. g) The protein levels of prelamin A, FANCD2, FANCI and RAD51 in IMR90 fibroblasts at early (P6) and late (P20) passages were detected by western blotting. Quantitative analysis results are shown as the mean ± SD. P values were determined by unpaired Student's t‐ test (a, b, d, and e) and one‐way ANOVA (c). ns, not significant; * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001; **** p < 0.0001.
