[Retracted] lncRNA HOTTIP Recruits EZH2 to Inhibit PTEN Expression and Participates in IM Resistance in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

Figure 3

Upregulation of HOTTIP decreases the sensitive of IM in K562 cells. Note: (a) K562 was transfected with specific lv-RNA of HOTTIP or negative lv-RNA (lv-con). RT-qPCR was used to detect HOTTIP level. (b) K562 cells were transfected with specific lv-HOTTIP or negative lv-con and treated with different Imatinib concentrations for 48 h. CCK-8 analysis was used to detect cell inhibition. vs. sh-con. (c) K562 cells were transfected with specific lv-HOTTIP or negative lv-con and treated with Imatinib for 48 h. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry using Annexin V/APC/PI. The right panel shows the apoptosis rate from three independent experiments. vs. sh-on. (d) Western blotting for protein levels in K562 cells transfected with lv-HOTTIP or negative lv-con and treated with IM (0.5 μM) or DMSO for 48 h.
