Figure Lengend Snippet: Characterization of TSC of its cytotoxicity and HDAC inhibitory activity. Structure of TSC (TSC) isolated from fermentation of Streptomyces sp. CPCC 203,909 ( a ). Concentration–effect curves of TSC in A549, SK-BR-3, and J82 ( b ). Acetylation levels of α-Tubulin and Histone H3. J82 cells were treated with the indicated concentrations of trichostatin A, Entinostat, and TSC ( c ).

Figure Lengend Snippet: TSC-induced activation of caspase 3/7. J82 cells were treated with TSC with TSC for 48 h and labeled with Hoechst 33,342 for cell nucleus and CellEvent caspase 3/7 reagent for activated caspase 3/7 ( a ). Percentage of caspase 3/7-positive cells ( b ). The two-tailed Student’s t -test or ANOVA was applied. Results are presented as mean ± SEM from three experiments. * p < 0.05 compared to control cells.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Synergistic anti-cancer effect of TSC and decitabine in human urothelial bladder cancer cell line J82 and human lung cancer cell line A549. Total of 48 h incubation with decitabine prior to TSC significantly increased cytotoxicity of TSC in J82 ( a ) and in A549 ( b ) cell lines. Synergistic effect was determined by the Chou–Talalay method in J82 ( c ) and A549 ( d ) cell lines. Left panel and middle panels: cell survival rate upon treatment with TSC and decitabine alone or in combination. The right panel indicates the fraction of cells affected (Fa) and CI. Synergistic effect is defined by CI < 1. Results are presented as mean ± SD from three experiments. ** p < 0.01, * p < 0.05, combination treatment vs. single treatment.

Figure Lengend Snippet: TSC altered expression of Axl and targets involved in FoxO1 pathway. Representative Western blot analysis of J82 cells upon the treatment of TSC for 48 h ( a ). Densitometrically measure expression of proteins relative to GAPDH are shown with three independent experiments ( b ). Results shown are the mean ± SD from three independent experiments. ** p < 0.01, * p < 0.05 as compared with control cells.
