Fig. 6: ALDOA is essential for the effect of POU2F1 on aerobic glycolysis and PPP in colon cancer cells.

A Seahorse analysis of glycolysis in the indicated cells exhibited that POU2F1 enhanced glycolysis, dependent on up-regulating ALDOA expression. B–F The levels of glucose consumption and lactate production, G6PD activity, intracellular NADPH and the ratios of NADP+/NADPH in indicated cells. G Western blot analyses of the relative levels of glycolysis- and PPP-related protein expression in the indicated cells. H The levels of intracellular ROS in the indicated cells. I Western blot analyses of the relative levels of γ-H2AX and PCNA expression in the indicated cells. Data are representative images or expressed as the mean ± SD of each group of samples analyzed in triplicate from three separate experiments. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
