Harvested after incubation with exogenous arachidonic acid (40 mM) at 37uC for 5 min. Bar, SD; * p,0.05. (C) ChIP assay for H3-K4 trimethylation at the 15-LOX-1 core promoter in L1236 and L428 cells. Primers B (see Materials and Methods and Fig. 3 A) were used for PCR amplification. Shown is one of four independent experiments. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0052703.gFigure 2. SMYD3 and SMCX regulate 15-LOX-1 expression in cultured HL-derived cells cells and prostate cancer cells. (A) Real-time PCR assay of 15-LOX-1 mRNA expression in L1236 and LNCaP cells treated with SMYD3 siRNAs or control siRNA (n = 4). The results were normalized to the mRNA level of beta-2 microglobulin. The efficiency of SMYD3 siRNA knocking down was evaluated using Western blots. Bar, SD; * p,0.05. (B) Real-time PCR assay and Western blot analysis of 15-LOX-1 mRNA and protein expression in L428 cells treated with SMCX siRNAs or control siRNA (n = 4). The real-time PCR data were normalized to the mRNA level of beta-2 microglobulin. The efficiency of SMCX siRNA knocking down was evaluated using Western blot and b-actin served as a loading control.

Modulation of the H3-K4 methylation/demethylation balance influences on 15-LOX-1 expression by affecting H3 acetylation and STAT6 occupancy at the 15-LOX-1 promoter. (A) Schematic presentation of the 15-LOX-1 promoter and PCR primer locations (relative to ATG) for the ChIP assay in relation to the three potential STAT6 binding motifs and SMYD3 binding site in the 15-LOX-1 promoter region. (B) Quantative ChIP assay for H3-K4 tri2/di2/monomethylation, acetylation, STAT6 and SMYD3 occupancy at the 15-LOX-1 promoter in L1236 cells treated with the SMYD3 siRNA or control siRNA. (C) Quantative ChIP assay for H3-K4 tri2/di2/monomethylation, acetylation, and STAT6 occupancy at the 15-LOX-1 promoter in L428 cells treated with the SMCX siRNA or control. Omission of antibodies (No Ab) was included in the whole experimental procedure, together with the PCR amplification of unrelated GAPDH gene, as appropriate controls. Data shown are from four independent experiments. Mean value of ChIP signals are normalized to 2 input. Input control is from non-immunoprecipitated total genomic DNA.

(A) SMYD3 depletion is associated with decreased 15-LOX-1 promoter activity. SMYD3 siRNA or control siRNA were contransfected with wild type (WT) SC 1 pGL3-15-LOX-1 reporter plasmid into L1236 cells (n = 4). Variation in transfection efficiency was normalized by Lixisenatide thymidine kinase-driven Renilla luciferase activity. Bar, SD; * p,0.05. (B) 15-LOX-1 transcription is induced by SMYD3 ectopic expression. SMYD3 expression vectors pcDNA-SMYD3 or empty vector pcDNA were cotransfected with WT pGL3-15-LOX-1 reporter plasmid into L428 cells (n = 4). Bar, SD; * p,0.05.
