FVIIwt FVIICys97 FVIIArg100
Media alone (n = 6) 100 ± 1.1  100 ± 3.1  100 ± 4.2 
NH4Cl, 50 mmol/L (n = 3)  107 ± 4.2 83.4 ± 3.6  113 ± 2.7  
Leupeptin, 100 μmol/L (n = 3)  98 ± 1.2  100.5 ± 3.9  84 ± 3.6 
Lactacystin, 10 μmol/L (n = 3)  88 ± 1.6 91.4 ± 2.8  98.1 ± 5.5  
ALNN, 50 μg/mL (n = 9) 96.4 ± 5.7  147 ± 8.93-150 113 ± 4.1  
Brefeldin A, 10 μg/mL (n = 6)  190 ± 10.43-151 125 ± 7.53-152 151 ± 10.83-153 
FVIIwt FVIICys97 FVIIArg100
Media alone (n = 6) 100 ± 1.1  100 ± 3.1  100 ± 4.2 
NH4Cl, 50 mmol/L (n = 3)  107 ± 4.2 83.4 ± 3.6  113 ± 2.7  
Leupeptin, 100 μmol/L (n = 3)  98 ± 1.2  100.5 ± 3.9  84 ± 3.6 
Lactacystin, 10 μmol/L (n = 3)  88 ± 1.6 91.4 ± 2.8  98.1 ± 5.5  
ALNN, 50 μg/mL (n = 9) 96.4 ± 5.7  147 ± 8.93-150 113 ± 4.1  
Brefeldin A, 10 μg/mL (n = 6)  190 ± 10.43-151 125 ± 7.53-152 151 ± 10.83-153 

90% confluent stably transfected CHO cells expressing recombinant FVIIwt, FVIICys97, or FVIIArg100 were incubated 4 hours in fresh media containing 10% FBS in the presence or absence of the different agents. The figures in parentheses are the number of independent transfections performed on cells from a single clone expressing each construct. The levels of VII:Ag were then measured in cell lysates and the results are expressed as the percentage of FVII (mean ± SE) produced in the absence of the agent.
