Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression of GCs markers PIWIL2 and DAZL in PB-MSCs and SSCs treated with SCs/CM for 21 days. ( A ) Higher ( p < 0.05) gene expression of PIWIL2 was detected in the SSCs-SCs/CM on day 7. On day 14 of culture, gene expression of PIWIL2 was higher ( p < 0.05) in PB-MSCs-SCs/CM and SSCs-SCs/CM compared to SCs, PB-MSCs and SSCs controls. Over time the relative expression of PIWIL2 increased ( p < 0.05) in SSCs-SCs/CM from day 7 to day 14. ( B ) The relative expression of DAZL was higher ( p < 0.05) in SSCs-SCs/CM on days 7 and 14 compared with SCs and SSCs controls. In PB-MSCs or PB-MSCs-SCs/CM no gene expression of DAZL was detected. ( C ) Piwil2 protein expression was immunodetected in PB-MSCs-SCs/CM and SSCs-SCs/CM on day 14. ( D ) Dazl was immunodetected in SSCs and SSCs-SCs/CM on day 14. (*) Indicate mRNA levels of specific gene were not detected. Different superscripts (a, b, c) indicate differences ( p < 0.05) for the same marker between cell types and (1,2) for the same marker between days of culture.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 2. Screen and analysis of PIWIL2 mono-allelic mutations. (a) Sequencing and alignment of mutations. PCR products ampli- fied from wild type and mutants genomic DNA were sequenced. The TALEN pair tar- get sequences were coloured in blue. The deleted sequences of allele were indicated with black box on the other allele. The sizes of deletions were shown with 4. An unex- pected mutation (GT ? TG) in clone Mutant #3 was observed and underlined. (b) An allele analysis of clone Mutant #1. The PCR prod- ucts were cloned into pMD19-T vector. Eigh- teen positive clones were analysed by PCR amplification and Msc I digestion.

(a) Single strand con- formation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis to screen monoclonal bi-allele mutant cell lines. NC represents normal HepG2 cells. Control represents 14 bp deleted PIWIL2 mono-allelic knockout cell line. Compared to controls, lanes 6, 7 and 8 indicated second mutation. Remarkable differences with controls – marked with arrows. (b) Identification of PI- WIL2 bi-allelic knockout cell lines. Mutants in (a) were further identified by pMD19-T cloning and sequencing to analyse allelic mutations. Clones #7 and #8 respectively rep- resent cell lines chosen as mutants in lanes 7 and 8 in (a). Other mutants did not have frameshift mutations on one allele (data not shown). Nucleotide sequences of mutated alleles – indicated with dashes. (c)Further identification with PCR amplification and restriction endonuclease analysis of the two cell clones in (b). NC represents normal HepG2 cells. (d) Western bolt analysis of expression of PIWIL2 in normal HepG2, PI- WIL2+/ and PIWIL2/ cells.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 5. PIWIL2 promoted cell popula- tion growth by inhibiting TGF-b signalling in HepG2 cells. (a) Knockdown of PIWIL2 upregulated p21, TbRI, TbRII and phosphor- ylated Smad2/3 with or without TGF-b stimu- lation. Normal HepG2 and PIWIL2+/ cells were treated or not treated with TGF-b for 2 h before harvesting. (b) Ectopic expression of PIWIL2 reduced level of p21, TbRI, TbRII and prevented Smad2/3 activation. HepG2 cells were transfected with PIWIL2 over a concentration gradient and treated with TGF- b before cells were harvested. (c) and (d) PI- WIL2 attenuated TGF-b-induced population growth inhibition. HepG2 cells were respec- tively transfected with pcDNA3.1, PIWIL2, shControl and shPIWIL2, and cultured in complete medium with or without TGF-b stimulation for 96 h before cells were analy- sed with CCK-8. Each experiment was per- formed in triplicate. *Indicates P < 0.05. N.S. indicates P > 0.05.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 6. PIWIL2 regulated degradation of TbRs via HSP90. (a) PIWIL2 promoted TbR degradation. HepG2 cells were transfected with Myc- PIWIL2, treated with MG132 for 6 h, and TGF-b for the last 2 h. (b) Reduction of TbRs and downstream events mediated by PIWIL2 was rescued by overexpression of HSP90. (c) Endogenous interactions between PIWIL2 and HSP90 in HepG2 cells. Co-IP was performed with anti- PIWIL2 or anti-HSP90, followed by western blotting. (d) Both PIWIL2 and HSP90 were co-localized mainly in cytoplasm. HepG2 cells were transfected with Myc-PIWIL2 and harvested for immunofluorescence with anti-Myc and anti-HSP90 antibodies. (e) PIWIL2 reduced interaction of HSP90 and TbRs. Normal and PIWIL2 knockdown cells were treated with MG132 before harvesting, and lysates were subjected to immunoprecipitation with anti-HSP90 antibody. (f) PIWIL2 attenuates interaction of HSP90 and TbRs. HepG2 cells were transfected with Myc-PIWIL2 over a concentration gradient. Forty eight hours later, cells were treated with MG132 before harvesting, and lysates were subjected to immunoprecipitation or western blot analysis. (g) PIWIL2 improved TbRI ubiquitination. HepG2 cells were co-transfected with Myc-PIWIL2 and HA-ubiquitin, then treated with MG132 and stimulated with TGF-b before harvesting. HA-ubiquitin was precipitated with anti-HA antibody, then ubiquitination and degradation of TbRI were determined by immunoblotting with anti-TbRI antibody.
