Figure 1Hypoxia induces D3 activity and mRNA. (
A) Endogenous D3 activity in SK-N-AS neurons, rat neonatal cardiomyocytes, NCLP6E hepatocytes, choriocarcinoma cells (JEG-3 cells), endometrial cells (ECC-1 cells), and AG04526 fibroblasts exposed to normoxia (21% O
2) versus hypoxia (1% O
2) for 24 h. Values are mean ± SEM of 2 or 3 cell plates; mean of 3 experiments is shown for each cell type. *
P < 0.005. (
B) Northern blot analysis of total RNA obtained from SK-N-AS or NCLP6E cells exposed to hypoxia versus normoxia for 24 h. Lanes were run on the same gel but were noncontiguous. (
C) D3 activity and Northern blotting in NCLP6E cells exposed to continuous normoxia (condition A), continuous hypoxia (condition B), or transient hypoxia for 24 h followed by normoxia (condition C). Representative experiment with mean ± SEM of 2 cell plates is shown; this experiment was reproduced.
