Introduction:

…This study examined the role and mechanism of HDAC8 in adaptive responses of the human monocytic THP-1 cells to LeTx-induced cell cycle arrest. We found that HDAC8 played a pivotal role in activating the PI3K-AKT signaling axis in LeTx-exposed cells through inducing histone H3 lysine 27 tri-methylation (H3K27me3) and subsequent inhibition of PTEN expression.

Reagents:

PA and LF were purchased from the List Biological Laboratories (Campbell, CA, USA).

Lethal Toxin consists of Lethal Factor & Protective Antigen:

Author did not indicate which specific lethal factor was utilized.  List Labs provides Product #172 (Anthrax Lethal Factor (LF), Recombinant from B. anthracis) and Product #169 (Anthrax Lethal Factor (LF-A), Recombinant from B. anthracis Native Sequence)

Blocking Immune Cell Egress from Tumors:

To block GPCR signaling, tumor-bearing Kaede mice were injected i.v. with 400 ng per mouse of pertussis toxin (List Biological Laboratories) or PBS immediately before photoconversion. Mice were then killed 24 h later and photoconverted T cells were quantified in tumor-draining lymph nodes by flow cytometry.
