A Diagram showing the sphingosine and thiamine metabolism pathways. B Validation of SPHK1 and TPK1 shRNA-mediated knockdown efficiencies in K562 cells using qRT-PCR (n = 3). C Validation of SPHK1 and TPK1 shRNA-mediated knockdown efficiencies in K562 cells using Western blot. D Detection of cell growth ability after SPHK1 or TPK1 knockdown (n = 3). E Flow cytometric analysis of cellular apoptosis after SPHK1 or TPK1 knockdown (n = 3). The bar graph data in Fig. 2 are presented as mean ± S.E.M.
