Figure Lengend Snippet: Receptor expressions of ALK2, ALK4, ALK6, ALK5, ALK7, BMPR-II in pASC. Grouped representation of the respective receptor expression in the course of osteogenic differentiation (OM +/− BMP-2). From day 19, there is a significant induction of ALK 2, ALK 6, and ALK 5 with the addition of BMP-2. BMPR-II expression in the OM group decreased in OM and tended to stay increased under BMP-2 supplementation from day 19, but was not considered significant (* p ≤ 0.05, ** p ≤ 0.01; n = 6, BMP-2 450 ng/mL).

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Western blots analyses for Smad2 and Smad1/5 phosphorylation levels in forestomach tissue lysate from approximately 6-week-old mice with the listed genotypes, 30 µg of protein loaded per lane, each lane represents a distinct mouse. (B) RT-PCR electrophoretic product for the listed genes in the forestomach of approximately 6-week-old mice with the listed genotypes. Buffer: no template control. (C) RT-PCR electrophoretic product for HGF in the forestomach fibroblasts from approximately 6-week-old mice with the listed genotypes with or without (0.1% FBS) stimulation with BMP7 (100 ng.ml−1). (D) Western blot analysis for BMP7 in forestomach tissue lysate from approximately 6-week-old mice with the listed genotypes, 30 µg of protein loaded per lane, each lane represents a distinct mouse. The actin blot is the same as depicted in Fig. 2G. (E) In situ hybridization for HGF and BMP7 mRNA (NBT/BCTP substrate, purple) in sections of the forestomach of the listed mice. L: lumen, S: stroma, E: epithelium/cancer cells, M: smooth muscle. Arrows point to stromal HGF and cancer cell BMP7 expression, respectively. Scale bars: upper panel (HGF): 50 µm, lower panel (BMP7): 20 µm. (F) Immunolabeling for BMP7, ALK6, ALK6 & FSP1. Color substrate: 3, 3´-diaminobenzidine (DAB, brown); for ALK6 & FSP1: 3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole (AEC, red) and Vector Blue. Scale bar: 20 µm. S: stroma. Arrowhead points to FSP1+ fibroblast with ALK6 immunoreactivity. (G) Immunofluorescence for ALK6 in cultured forestomach fibroblasts from approximately 6-week-old mice with the listed genotypes.

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Cell proliferation (methylene blue absorbance) of wt (gray), TGFBR2cKO (red) or TGFBR2/SMAD4cKO (blue) forestomach fibroblasts cultured in vitro with the indicated treatments. The data is normalized by setting the 0.1% FBS control at 1. Unpaired one-tailed t test compared to 0.1% FBS control, statistical analyses carried out on untransformed data. The data is presented as the mean ± SEM. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ns: not significant. See accompanying source data. (B) Diagram of the proposed crosstalk between the TGFBR2-deficient FSP1+ fibroblasts (blue) and the overlying epithelium (black). FSP1+ fibroblasts produce HGF to activate Met receptors on overlying epithelial cells, causing epithelial cells to produce BMP7, which stimulates ALK6 receptors on FSP1+ fibroblasts to produce HGF. (C) Comparison of BMP7 and HGF protein levels in forestomach whole tissue lysates of wt, TGFβR2floxE2; αSMA-Cre and TGFβR2floxE2; FSP1-Cre (TGFBR2cKO) mice. Western blots, 30 µg of protein loaded per lane. BMP7 and HGF are highly upregulated in the TGFBR2cKO forestomach cancer tissue.
