Histone Lysine Methylation in TGF-β1 Mediated p21 Gene Expression in Rat Mesangial Cells

Figure 4

TGF-β1 enhances SET7/9 recruitment at p21 gene promoter and SET7/9 is involved in TGF-β1 induced p21 gene expression in RMC. (a) ChIP assays performed with SET7/9 antibody normalized to input DNA. Result was expressed as fold over control (mean ± SEM; versus ctrl, ). (b) p21 mRNA expressions are investigated by RT-QPCR; β-actin was used as internal control gene. Results are expressed as fold over control (mean ± SEM; versus ctrl; versus siNeg + TGF-β1, ).
(a) ChIP
(b) mRNA
