Fig. 6. Effects of PDGFR
PI3K/PI3K mutation on Rac1
activation and paxillin localization. (A) Western blot for
GTP-bound Rac1 and total Rac1 in control and PDGFR
PI3K/PI3K
cells. Upper blot demonstrates the time course of Rac1 activation in control
cells. Lower blot illustrates the failure of PDGFR
PI3K/PI3K
cells to stimulate Rac1 activation when stimulated with PDGFAA. Cells were
stimulated for 10 minutes. Results are representative of three independent
experiments. (B) Immunocytochemistry for paxillin localization in
control and PDGFR
mutant cells. Genotypes are indicated on the left.
Cells were plated for two hours, starved for 24 hours, and then stimulated for
30 minutes with the indicated stimulation. Images are representative of five
independent experiments and represent the majority of cells within the culture
for each stimulation. Scale bar: 50 µm.
