Figure 2From: The GATA1s isoform is normally down-regulated during terminal haematopoietic differentiation and over-expression leads to failure to repress MYB, CCND2 and SKI during erythroid differentiation of K562 cellsGATA1s expression levels during haematopoietic differentiation of K562 cell lines by Haemin and TPA. (a) K562 surface glycophorin A expression measured by single colour FACS after 3 days of Haemin treatment (MFI = −Mean Fluorescence Intensity) (b, c) quantitative PCR analysis of (b) GATA1FL and (c) GATA1s, expression levels during the course of Haemin-induced erythroid differentiation (n = 3), results are expressed as fold change (log2) using day 0 as the calibrator (expression arbitrarily set at 1.0) (d) DNA ploidy analysis in K562 cells 0, 1, 2 and 3 days following treatment with the differentiating agent TPA (e, f) quantitative PCR analysis of (e) GATA1FL and (f) GATA1s, expression levels during the course of TPA-induced megakaryocytic differentiation (n = 3), results are expressed as fold change (log2) using day 0 as the calibrator (expression arbitrarily set at 1.0).Back to article page
