Figure Lengend Snippet: PDK1‐RSK2 and ERK1/2‐RSK2 signalling pathways exert opposite effects on ADAM10/17‐dependent SEV release. (a) Schematic of signalling effectors involved in ADAM10/17‐mediated release of SEVs and selective inhibitors. NTKD: N‐terminal kinase domain; CTKD: C‐terminal kinase domain (left). Protein level of SEVs released by an equal number of 1C11 cells treated or not with inhibitors of PDK1 (BX912, 1 µM), ADAM17 (TAPI‐2, 25 µM), ADAM10 (GI254023X, 1 µM), ERK1/2 (PD98059, 2 µM), RSK2 N‐terminal (SL0101, 4 µM) or RSK2 C‐terminal (FMK, 3 µM) for 96 h (middle, n = 4). Quantification of NanoLuc‐Hsp70 HeLa EVs luminescence in the culture medium of an equal number of genetically modified HeLa cells treated or not with BX912 (5 µM), TAPI‐2 (100 µM), GI254023X (1 µM), PD98059 (5 µM), SL0101 (40 µM) or FMK (15 µM) for 24 h (right, n = 4). (b) Immunofluorescent labelling and quantification histogram of ADAM17 at the cell surface of 1C11 cells. Scale bar = 50 µm. (c) Biotin‐based assay, western blot analysis and quantification histogram of mature ADAM17 at the surface of 1C11 cells ( n = 3). Tubulin in input lysates is shown as a loading control. (d) Cell surface ADAM17 activity in 1C11 cells. (e) Immunofluorescent labelling and quantification histogram of ADAM10 at the cell surface of 1C11 cells. Scale bar = 50 µm. (f) Biotin‐based assay, western blot analysis and quantification histogram of mature ADAM10 at the surface of 1C11 cells ( n = 3). Tubulin in input lysates is shown as a loading control. For experiments in (b) to (f), cells were treated or not with BX912 (1 µM), PD98059 (5 µM), SL0101 (40 µM) or FMK (15 µM) for 24 h. Values are means ± SEM. ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 and **** p < 0.0001 versus untreated cells (control, Ctrl) or BX912‐ or SL0101‐treated cells.
Article Snippet: The ADAM10 inhibitor GI254023X (TOCRIS Bioscience, 3995) and the PDK1 inhibitor BX912 (Axon Medchem BV, 1130) were prepared as 20 mM stock solution dissolved in 90% DMSO.
