Numbers represent the LC3B-II/actin ratios obtained by densitometric analysis. b Cells were incubated for 4 or 8£¿h with vehicle or 20£¿¦ÌM of chloroquine, and then incubated with Cyto-ID before flow cytometry (n£¿=£¿3£¿¡À£¿SEM). ¦¤MFI£¿=£¿MFI(chloroquine)£¿£¿£¿MFI(vehicle). c Cells were treated with vehicle or BafA1 for 2£¿h before LC3 staining, fluorescent labeling, and immunofluorescence analysis. d Quantification of LC3-positive autophagosomes (n£¿=£¿3£¿¡À£¿SEM). e, f Pharmacological inhibition or genetic invalidation of a decrease in KIT autophagic flux. e TF-1 KITD816V cells were treated overnight with PKC412 at 1£¿¦ÌM; 20£¿nM of BafA1 was added at 2£¿h before cell lysis and western blotting. Numbers represent the LC3B-II/actin ratios obtained by densitometric analysis (n£¿=£¿2£¿¡À£¿SD). f KITD816V cells were incubated for 3 days with doxycycline to induce expression of shRNA against KIT. Cells were treated for 2£¿h with BafA1 (20£¿nM) and then analyzed by western blotting.
