Experimental details: For immunofluorescence analysis, HeLa cells were fixed and permeabilized for detection of endogenous TAZ using Anti-TAZ Recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (Product # 703032, 1:100 dilution) and labeled with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) Highly Cross-Adsorbed Secondary Antibody, Alexa Fluor Plus 488 conjugate (Product # A32731, 1:2000). Panel a) shows representative cells that were stained for detection and localization of TAZ (green), Panel b) is stained for nuclei (blue) using ProLong™ Diamond Antifade Mountant with DAPI (Product # P36962). Panel c) represents cytoskeletal F-actin staining using Rhodamine Phalloidin (Product # R415, 1:300). Panel d) is a composite image of Panels a, b and c clearly demonstrating Cytoplasmic and nuclear localization of TAZ. Panel e) represents control cells with no primary antibody to assess background. The images were captured at 60X magnification.

Experimental details: Figure 1. miR-125a-5p reverses epithelial-mesenchymal transition in MCF7/Adr cells. (A) Transfection efficiency of mimics was determined via reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. miR-125a-5p was overexpressed after transfection of mimics in MCF-7/Adr cells. (B) Cell morphological alterations after miR-125a-5p transfection, as indicated by arrows. Images of cells in medium. The cells of NC groups remained elongated and dispersed with a mesenchymal morphology, and the cells of miR-125a-5p groups were closely packed and rounded with a cobblestone epithelial morphology; magnification, x200 (scale bar, 20 um). (C) Western blot analysis of TAFAZZIN, TG2, AKT, E-cadherin, N-cadherin, vimentin and beta-catenin in MCF7/Adr cells. (D and E) Semi-quantification of protein expression results from panel (C). GAPDH served as an internal control. Data are presented as the mean +- SD. Similar results were obtained from three independent experiments. *P

Experimental details: Figure 3. TAFAZZIN is a target of miR-125a-5p in MCF-7/Adr cells. (A) Binding site of miR-125a-5p and TAFAZZIN 3'-UTR according to online bioinformatics analysis. (B) Luciferase activity was decreased for wild-type-TAFAZZIN, but not for the mutant. (C) RNA immunoprecipitation assay indicated that miR-125a-5p and TAFAZZIN were conjunct in MCF-7/Adr cell lines. (D) TAFAZZIN mRNA expression in miR-125a-5p and control groups as detected via reverse transcription-quantitative PCR. (E) Western blot analysis of TAFAZZIN protein expression in miR-125a-5p and control groups. (F) Semi-quantification of TAFAZZIN protein expression in panel (E). MCF-7/Adr cells were treated with siRNA-TAFAZZIN, and the expression levels of (G) TAFAZZIN, TG2, p-AKT, t-AKT, E-cadherin, N-cadherin, vimentin, beta-catenin, (H) cleaved caspase-3, caspase-3, pro-apoptotic protein (Bax) and PCNA were detected via western blotting. Knockdown of TAFAZZIN expression could significantly reduce TAFAZZIN, TG2, p-AKT, N-cadherin, vimentin, beta-catenin, Bcl-2 and PCNA protein expression and increase those of E-cadherin and Bax, as well as activate caspase-3. (I-L) Semi-quantification of protein levels in panels (G and H). GAPDH was used as an internal reference. Data are shown as the mean +- SD. Similar results were obtained from three independent experiments. *P
