Fig. 5.
Expression of p21WAF1/CIP1 mRNA in HL-60 and NB4 cells, and p21WAF1/CIP1 and p27KIP1 transcripts in UF-1 cells. Cells were cultured with either 10−7 mol/L 1,25(OH)2D3 (A) or 10−7 mol/L all-trans RA (B) for 48 hours. Total RNA (15 μg per lane) was extracted and analyzed by Northern blot with [32P]-labeled p21WAF1/CIP1 or p27KIP1 cDNA probe. Bottom panel shows the ethidium bromide–stained formaldehyde gel before Northern blotting; the levels of 28S and 18S ribosomal RNA are comparable in each lane.
