 Fig. 3. NF-kB-mediated SASP and TNF-asecretion is required for
 treatment-induced NK cell activity.(A) Quantitative reverse tran-
 scription polymerase chain reaction analysis of SASP gene expression in
 KP tumor cells transduced with indicated shRNAs after treatment
 with vehicle or trametinib (25 nM) and palbociclib (500 nM) for 8 days.
 Mean of two biological replicates associated with three technical replicates
 is plotted. AU, arbitrary units. (B) Representative images of KP tumor
 cells with indicated shRNAs (green) pretreated as in (A) and cocultured
 with primary murine splenic NK cells (red) at a 20:1 E:T ratio for 20 hours
 in the presence or absence of indicated drugs (scale bar, 25mm).
 Quantification of NK cell cytotoxicity (by live cell imaging) is shown on
 the right. Change in tumor cells is normalized to control wells lacking
 NK cells. Mean of three biological replicates is plotted. (C) Flow
 cytometry analysis of total and CD107a+degranulating NK cells within
 the CD45+population in the lungs after 1-week treatment of mice
 transplanted with KP tumor cells containing controlRenilla(Ren)orp65
 shRNAs with vehicle or combined trametinib (1 mg/kg body weight)
 and palbociclib (100 mg/kg body weight) (n≥3 mice per group).
 (D) Kaplan-Meier survival curve of KP transplant mice treated with
 vehicle or combined trametinib (1 mg/kg body weight) and palbociclib
 (100 mg/kg body weight) and either an isotype control (HRPN), NK1.1
 (PK136), or TNF-a(XT3.11) targeting antibody (n≥6 per group) (log-rank
 test). (E) Flow cytometry analysis as in (C) after 1-week treatment of
 KP transplant mice with vehicle or combined trametinib (1 mg/kg body
 weight) and palbociclib (100 mg/kg body weight) and either an isotype
 control (HRPN) or TNF-a(XT3.11) targeting antibody (n= 5 per group).
 (F) Quantification of NK cell cytotoxicity (by live cell imaging) toward
 KP tumor cells with indicated shRNAs pretreated as in (B) and cocultured
 with primary murine splenic NK cells at a 20:1 E:T ratio for 20hours
 in the presence or absence of indicated drugs. (A to C and E and F)
 One-way ANOVA. Error bars, mean ± SEM. P< 0.01, *P< 0.001,
 **P< 0.0001.
