SEPT7 is required for the activation of caspase-3. (a) Control and SEPT7-depleted cells were treated with DMSO or STS, and stained with cleaved anti-caspase-3 antibody and DAPI. Representative confocal microscopy images showing cleaved caspase-3 in red and DAPI in blue. Scale bar = 100 μm. (b) The percentage of cleaved caspase-3-stained cells was calculated in Fiji by dividing the number of cells that displayed cleaved caspase-3 staining by the total number of cells, then multiplying by 100. Each bar represents the mean % ± SEM from three independent experiments (a minimum of 1,000 cells were counted per condition separated in three independent experiments). **p < .01, ****p < .0001 by two-way ANOVA. (c) HeLa cells (CTRL or SEPT7 siRNA transfected) were treated with 1 μM staurosporine for 5 hr, followed by staining of active caspase-3 and analyzed by flow cytometry (a minimum of cells were counted per condition separated in three independent experiments). *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 by two-way ANOVA |
