Titration of HeLa-DFO extract within the working range of the assay. Background subtracted data from duplicate measurements are plotted. To induce HIF1 alpha protein levels, HeLa cells were treated with 500 µM DFO (ab120727) for 24 hours.
Dose-dependent induction of HIF1 alpha in HeLa cells by DFO (ab120727). HeLa cells were cultured in 96-well tissue culture plates and were either untreated or exposed to varying dose of DFO for 24 hours. Raw data with standard deviation is plotted from triplicate measurements.
Comparison of HIF1 alpha expression in HeLa cell extracts (with and without DFO treatment) by SimpleStep ELISA (barchart) and western blot (top). Background subtracted OD450 nm data from three loading concentrations are shown. The HIF1 alpha detector antibody was used to blot the same lysates as analyzed by SimpleStep ELISA (40 µg loaded/lane). The GAPDH blot is included to show the relative loads of each lysate. In the HeLa cell line, DFO treatment is required to detect HIF1 alpha protein by both SimpleStep ELISA and western blot.
