Effects of CK-1δ inhibitors on CDK6 expression levels. Immortalized lymphocytes from control and c.709-1G > A GRN mutation carriers, were seeded at an initial density of 1 × 106 × ml−1 and cultured in RPMI medium containing 10 % FBS in the absence or in the presence of IGS-2.7 and IGS-3.27 (5 μM). 24 h later cells were harvested to isolate RNA and to prepare cell lysates. a) CDK6 mRNA expression levels were analyzed by quantitative RT-PCR. Data shown are the mean ± SEM of different observations using five controls, five asymptomatic and five FTLD-TDP patients. b) Representative immunoblot showing CDK6 protein content after drugs treatment. Densitometric measurements were performed on individual immunoblots and values indicate the mean of CDK6 levels normalized with the corresponding β-actin levels ± SEM for experiments carried out with seven different cell lines for each group (*p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 significantly different from control cells; †p < 0.05 and ††p < 0.01 significantly different from untreated cells)
