PKCζ-dependent upregulation of p27kip1 contributes to oxidative stress induced retinal pigment epithelial cell multinucleation
Figure 4. The effects of PKC isoform inhibition in RPE cell multinucleation. (A) control RPE cells. (B) oxPOS treated RPE cells. (C) PKCζ inhibited + oxPOS treated RPE cells. (D) PKCι inhibited + oxPOS treated RPE cells. (E) PKC δ/ε inhibited + oxPOS treated RPE cells. Arrows indicate multinucleate RPE cells. (F) histogram showing the percentage of binucleate/multinucleate RPE cells following different treatments *, P < 0.05, ***, P < 0.001 compared to oxPOS treated group. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparison test. 50 cells were counted from three wells for each group.
