Steady state SMS mRNA levels relative to GAPDH expression in cultured fibroblasts and osteoblasts. The patient’s cells did not differ significantly from controls. Data were derived by qRT-PCR analysis of 3 independent extractions of total RNA. C . Immunoblot showing steady state SMS protein expression in patient and control osteoblasts. ß-tubulin is shown as a loading control. D . Graph showing steady state SMS protein levels in the patient and control hBMSCs relative to ß-tubulin levels; there was no significant difference. The data are based on 3 independent experiments for each cell line. E - J . Immunofluorescent detection of SMS protein subcellular distribution in unaffected (E-G) and Patient II-1 (H-J) hBMSCs. SMS protein is shown in red and the nucleus is shown in blue. K . Graph quantifying immunoblot detected steady state SMS protein levels in the cytoplasm and nuclei of patient and control hBMSCs. The cytoplasmic expression was normalized to β-tubulin expression and the nuclear expression to p84 expression. L . Polyamine quantification in fibroblasts and osteoblasts. Note that the patient hBMSCs have a more striking imbalance of spermidine and spermine levels than do the patient fibroblasts, * p < 0.05, *** p < 0.005. M . Osteogenic potential of bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) isolated from Patient II-1 sample is markedly lower than that of an unaffected control (cnt). The hBMSCs were seeded in triplicates (6x10 4 /12-well) and either kept untreated (-) or treated (+) with osteogenic differentiation media (see ) for 18 days. After the treatment, cells were fixed and were stained with Alizarin Red S to check for calcium deposition, a marker of osteogenic differentiation.

Article Title: The glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus promotes release of virus-like particles from tetherin-positive cells

doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0189073

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) 293T cells were transiently transfected with plasmids encoding HIV-Gag, tetherin and the indicated viral proteins or empty plasmid as negative control (Mock). HIV-1 Vpu and EBOV-GP were employed as positive controls for tetherin antagonism. The presence of Gag in supernatants and cell lysates was determined by Western blot analysis using an anti-Gag antibody. Expression of tetherin was detected using anti-c-Myc antibody while rabbit sera were employed to detect expression of EBOV-GP, Vpu and VSV proteins. Detection of ß-actin in cell lysates served as loading control. Similar results were obtained in four separate experiments. (B) The average of eight independent experiments conducted as described for panel (A) and quantified via the ImageJ program is shown. Release of Gag from cells coexpressing Vpu and tetherin was set to 100%. One-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-test analysis was performed to test whether signals measured in the presence of tetherin antagonists were statistically different from those detected in the absence of antagonists (Mock). (C) The same experiment was performed as in (A) but instead of human tetherin porcine tetherin was examined. The results of a representative experiment are shown and were confirmed in three separate experiments. (D) 293T cells were transfected as described for panel (A) and at 16 h post transfection the medium was replaced by fresh culture medium supplemented with ((+)Ab) or without ((-)Ab) hybridoma supernatant containing VSV neutralizing antibody at a final concentration of 1:1,000. (E) The average of four independent experiments conducted as described for panel (D) and quantified via the ImageJ program is presented. Release of Gag from cells coexpressing Vpu and tetherin was set to 100%. One-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-test analysis was performed to test whether differences between signals obtained from cells expressing viral tetherin antagonists and cells expressing no antagonist (Mock), or between cells expressing VSV-G and treated with or without anti-VSV-G antibody (**, p ≤ 0.005; ***, p ≤ 0.001) were statistically significant. (F) 293T cells were transiently transfected with the indicated amounts of plasmid encoding VSV-G. At 48 h post transfection the expression of VSV-G was determined via Western blot using anti-VSV-G hybridoma supernatant (left panel). In parallel, 293T cells were infected with VSV using the indicated multiplicities of infection (MOI) and VSV-G expression was examined by Western blot at 24 h post infection using anti-VSV-G antibody (concentrated supernatants from hybridoma CL-2700). The results of a representative experiment are shown and were confirmed in three separate experiments.

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) 293T cells were transfected with plasmids encoding the indicated glycoproteins or mock-transfected. Expression was determined by Western blot analysis using anti-VSV-G antibody (concentrated supernatants from hybridoma CL-2700). Detection of β-actin expression served as loading control. (B) The average of four independent experiments conducted as described for panel (A) and quantified via the ImageJ program is presented. Expression of VSV-G wt was set to 100%. (C) Incorporation of VSV-G wt and mutant LXXXL into VSV pseudotypes was investigated by Western blot analysis using an anti-VSV-G antibody (concentrated supernatants from hybridoma CL-2700). To ensure that similar amounts of pseudotypes were analyzed, levels of particle-associated M proteins were determined using an anti-VSV-M antibody. Pseudotypes harboring no glycoprotein (Mock) served as negative control. The results of a single immunoblot are shown from which irrelevant lanes were cut out. Similar results were obtained in two separate experiments. (D) 293T cells were transduced with equal volumes of the VSV pseudotypes described in panel (C). At 24 h post transduction, luciferase activity in cell lysates was measured. Transduction driven by VSV-G wt was set as 100%. The average of three independent experiments is shown. Error bars indicate SEM. (E) 293T cells were cotransfected with plasmids encoding Gag, the indicated glycoproteins and tetherin. Expression of Gag in supernatants and cell lysates was determined by Western blot. Detection of β-actin expression served as loading control. (F) The average of three independent experiments conducted as described for panel (E) and quantified via the ImageJ program is presented. Error bars indicate standard error of the mean (SEM). Release of Gag from cells coexpressing the highest amount of VSV-G and tetherin was set to 100%. For all graphs (B, D, F), paired two-tailed Students’ t-tests were performed to assess whether differences between VSV-G wt and LXXXL mutant were of statistical significance.

(B) HeLa cells were transfected with the indicated siRNAs. At 48 h post transfection, cells were harvested and stained with anti-tetherin antibody. Cell staining was then analyzed by flow cytometry. The results of a single representative experiment carried out with triplicate samples are shown, in which tetherin surface expression levels in cells transfected with control siRNA (scrambled) were set as 100%. Error bars indicate standard deviation (SD). An unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-test was used to assess statistical significance (***, p ≤ 0.001).
