Figure Legend Snippet: A. Estimation of GTP-bound ‘active’ rhoA in uterine myocytes treated with Calp or vehicle (DMF) for 15 min (n = 2). RhoA content was quantified relative to α-actin loading control, and used to correct rhoA activity data. Error bars represent standard deviations. B. Quantification of pRLC and ppRLC in uterine myocytes treated with Calp and with increasing concentrations of a cell-permeable rhoA inhibitor (C3 transferase) by ICW (n = 4). * and ** indicate significant differences from vehicle or Calp alone (second histogram), respectively. Calp (calpeptin); rhoA activator (0.5 mU/mL). p<0.05 in all cases as determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey test.
Techniques Used: Activity Assay
Figure Legend Snippet: Panels A-D correspond to WB data derived using an Ab directed toward the C-terminus of RLC. A. Representative WBs demonstrating RLC phospho-states separated by Mn 2+ -phos-tag SDS-PAGE. Uterine myocytes were lysed and total protein was harvested after the following treatments: untreated, or treated with g-H, Calp, OT, or with their corresponding vehicles. B. Quantification of bands identified in panel A (untreated; n = 12, g-H; n = 5, Calp; n = 8, OT; n = 7). The signals derived from 0pRLC T , 1pRLC T , and 2pRLC T are expressed as the proportion of their sum total within each lane. C. Absolute magnitude of the difference in each phospho-state caused by the treatments in comparison to the corresponding vehicle (‘+’ indicates enhancement relative to vehicle, ‘−’ indicates diminution relative to vehicle). D. Vehicle-corrected distribution data obtained by combining the data in panel C to the untreated group distribution. g-H (glycyl-H-1152); ROK inhibitor (1 µM). Calp (calpeptin); rhoA activator (0.5 mU/mL). OT; oxytocin (100 nM). All data are shown as means ± SEMs. The corresponding numerical data are compiled in .
