doi: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1000584

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A–C) Epha2 homozygous deletion in mice causes development of progressive cataract. (A) Cataracts were visible by gross inspection in homozygous Epha2 knockout mice ( Epha2 −/− ) between 5 to 8 months of age, but not in heterozygous or wild type mice. Shown are slit lamp images confirming development of cataract in Epha2 −/− but not Epha2 +/+ mice. (B) Dark field imaging of the dissected lens. Although not readily detectable by visual inspection, cataracts were found on dissected lens by 3 months of age. This lens was tilted to show denser opacity near the equator (arrow). Enucleation frequently occurred during dissection of mature cataract after 8 months (far right). (C) Retroillumination examination revealed clusters of small vacuoles by one month of age. Scale bars: 1 mm for middle panel; 150 µm for right panel. (D) Immunoblot of total lens lysates showing decreasing EPHA2 expression with aging. (E–M) Compartmentalized and gradient expression of EPHA2 (red) in mouse lens. Blue: DAPI nuclear staining. (E–I) Midsagittal sections of lens from 14-day-old wild type mice were stained for EPHA2. (E) Low power view of an entire lens revealed dense expression of EPHA2 in subcortical lens fiber cells. Dotted arrows indicate gradient expression in lens epithelial cells near the equator. Scale bar: 1 mm. (F) Low EPHA2 expression in anterior lens epithelial cells (arrow head, sandwiched between dotted lines). (G) Inset from (F) showing high EPHA2 expression in lens fiber cells. (H) High level of EPHA2 expression at the bow. (I) Inset from (H) showing dense expression at modulus (arrow). Scale bars: 5 µm for F–I. (J–M) Coronal sections through the bow region of lens co-stained for EPHA2 and N-cadherin. (J) Note the spatially regulated expression pattern in subcortical lens fiber cells. (K) Inset from (J) showing “honey-comb” membrane staining pattern of EPHA2 in the cross sections of fiber cells at high magnifications. (L) N-cadherin from the same section show overlapping but distinct expression pattern compared with that of EPHA2. (M) Merged images of EPHA2/N-cadherin. 10 µm for J, L, and M; 2 µm for K.

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A,B) Arg721Gln mutation causes an increased basal activation of EPHA2 kinase, which was correlated with dramatically reduced basal ERK1/2 activities. In a kinetic study (A), HEK 293 cells expressing WT-, Arg721Gln -EPHA2 or vector control were stimulated with 2 µg/ml ephrin-A1-Fc for the indicated times. In a separate experiment, a dose-response study was carried out (B), where different doses of ephrin-A1-Fc were used to stimulate cells expressing WT- or Arg721Gln -EPHA2 for 10 min. Cell lysates from both experiments were blotted with the indicated antibodies as described previously . (C) HEK 293 cells expressing Arg721-Gln mutant EPHA2 but not WT-EPHA2 were growth-inhibited by ephrin-A1 in a clonal growth assay as described previously . About 200 cells/well were seeded in a 24-well culture dish and cultured for 10 days in the presence or absence of ephrin-A1. (D) Stochastic intracellular trapping of Arg721Gln mutant in MEF cells derived from Epha2 knockout embryos. Shown is a cluster of cells with the mutant EPHA2 trapped inside the cells. In contract, WT-EPHA2 was primarily expressed on the cytoplasmic membrane. Scale bar: 5 µm.
