Figure 1 ARNT and AHR immunohistochemistry in AIPmut+ and AIPmut- pituitary tumors at an original magnification of ×356. A: Negative ARNT staining in a patient with AIP Q14X mutation (left); positive ARNT staining in AIPmut− adenoma (right). B: Positive nuclear AHR staining in a patient with AIP Q14X mutation (left); negative nuclear AHR staining in AIPmut− adenoma (right).

Figure 3 Western blot results from MEF, HeLa, and HEK293 cell lines. (Arrows indicate the bands corresponding to the proteins detected.) A: Arnt, Aip and α-Tubulin expression in Aip wild-type (Aip+/+) and Aip-null (Aip−/−) MEF cell lines. B: ARNT, AIP, and α-tubulin expression in HeLa and HEK293 cell lines: 1) untreated; 2) AIP siRNA-transfected; 3) control siRNA-transfected; and 4) transfection reagent-treated (DF1) cells.

Figure 4 Western blot and proliferation assay results from GH3 cell line. A: Arnt, Aip, and α-tubulin expression in 1) Aip siRNA transfected; 2) untreated; and 3) control siRNA-transfected cells. In each lane the intensity of Arnt protein has been normalized against α-tubulin. B: Cell proliferation of Aip siRNA, control siRNA-transfected, and untreated cells performed by MTS assay at different time points.
