Extended Data Fig. 2: Sulfopin phenocopies Pin1 knockout phenotypes.
From: Sulfopin is a covalent inhibitor of Pin1 that blocks Myc-driven tumors in vivo
a, HeLa cells were treated with either DMSO, Sulfopin, or Go6976 (a Chk1 inhibitor) and exposed to 7.5 Gy IR 1 h after drug treatment. Viability was assessed 3 days post-IR. Sulfopin shows a dose dependent sensitization of the cells to irradiation (n=3; data are represented as mean values with standard deviation). b, Western blot analysis was performed 24 h post-IR, showing Sulfopin blocked phosphorylation of Thr209 of IRAK1. c, A shorter exposure shows that Sulfopin inhibits IRAK1 phosphorylation already at concentrations of 0.1 μM. d, A scheme for testing the effect of Sulfopin in vivo on germinal center B cells in response to immunization. e, Representative flow cytometric plots with Vehicle and Sulfopin (left) and quantification (right) of FASHi CD38− germinal center (GC) cells in WT mice 11 days after immunization with NP-OVA. ** p<0.01, two tailed Student’s t test.
