Article Title: Licochalcone H induces the apoptosis of human oral squamous cell carcinoma cells via regulation of matrin 3
doi: 10.3892/or.2018.6784
Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of LCH on the expression of Matr3 proteins in the oral squamous cell carcinoma cell lines. Pull-down assays of LCH binding to Matr3 ex vivo . Whole (A) HCS2 and (B) HSC3 cell lysates were incubated with Sepharose 4B or LCH-Sepharose 4B beads overnight at 4°C. Immunoblotting of pull-down products was performed with the anti-Matr3 antibody. HSC2 and HSC3 cells were seeded onto a cell culture plate for 24 h and treated with LCH (10, 20 and 30 µM) for 48 h. (C) Cells were harvested and western blot analysis was performed via SDS-PAGE. Expression of Matr3, PARP, cleaved PARP, caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3 and GAPDH were detected by western blot analysis using specific antibodies. GAPDH protein was used as the loading control. LCH, licochalcone H; Matr3, matrin 3; PARP, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase.
Article Snippet: siRNA sequences targeting Matr3 (matrin-3 siRNA; cat. no. sc-62604) and a non-targeting control (control siRNA; cat. no. sc-37007) were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology.
