From: DRAM1 regulates apoptosis through increasing protein levels and lysosomal localization of BAX

Figure 5

BAX mediates the proapoptotic role of DRAM1. (a) A549 cells were treated with 3NP (500 μM) and harvested 24, 48 and 72 h later for the preparation of mitochondrial and cytosolic fractions. Bars represent mean±S.E.; n=3; **P<0.01 versus 0h. (b) A549 cells were transfected with DRAM1 small interfering RNA (siRNA) or non-silencing (Non-sil) siRNA for 24 h and then treated with 3NP (500 μM) for 24 h. Bars represent mean±S.E.; n=3; **P<0.01 versus NC; #P<0.05; ##P<0.01 versus 3NP+NC. (c) A549 cells were transfected with BAX siRNA or Non-sil siRNA for 24 h and then treated with 3NP (500 μM) for 24 h. Bars represent mean±S.E.; n=3; **P<0.01 versus NC; ##P<0.01 v ersus 3NP+NC. NC, negative control
