WAVE2 KD does not reduce the expression of Hem1 protein and does not affect BCR signaling in response to immobilized anti-Ig. ( A ) A20 cells were transfected with control siRNA or WAVE2 siRNA, cultured for 48 h, and then analyzed via immunoblotting with Abs to WAVE2, Hem1, or actin (loading control). Normalized levels of WAVE2 or Hem1 relative to control siRNA-transfected cells are shown. ( B ) A20 cells that had been transfected with control siRNA or WAVE2 siRNA were allowed to spread on anti-IgG-coated tissue culture wells for the indicated times before analyzing BCR signaling by immunoblotting for the phosphorylation of the CD79a ITAM (pCD79a) or the phosphorylated (activated) forms of ERK (pERK) or Akt (pAkt). The same cell lysates were probed for total CD79a, ERK, or Akt. The dashed red line was overlaid on the images of the blots to visually separate the time courses for the control siRNA and WAVE2 siRNA-transfected cells. For both panels, one of three independent experiments with similar results is shown. Full uncropped blots are shown in .

$Deletion of Hem1 attenuates respiration by suppressing c-Abl signaling. A – F , bone marrow macrophages from indicated genotypes were cultured with M-CSF and RANKL for 3 days. Different fractions of mitochondrial and nonmitochondrial respiration per 10,000 cells, in osteoclasts, were measured by Seahorse XF96 (n = 11–12 wells/group). G – I , bone marrow macrophages lacking Hem1 were cultured with M-CSF and RANKL for ( G ) 3 days or ( H and I ) indicated time points. G , ATP levels in osteoclasts (RLU, relative luminescence units; n = 4/group). H and I , protein levels (Western blot) in bone marrow macrophage cultures. To clarify Hem1 deletion in osteoclasts, the same images of Hem1 band are used. These are the same set of samples from the bone marrow macrophage cultures. J , osteoclasts developed in cultures of bone marrow macrophages from 6-month-old male C57BL/6 mice in the presence or the absence of imatinib (5 μM). Representative pictures ( left ), number ( middle ), and total area ( right ) of TRAP-positive multinucleated osteoclasts with more than ten nuclei (scale bar represents 500 μm) (triplicate cultures). K and L , bone marrow macrophages were isolated from 5.5-week-old male Hem1 knockout mice and wildtype littermates and were cultured with M-CSF and RANKL for ( K ) 5 or ( L ) 3 days in the presence or the absence of DPH (1 μM).

Lines and error bars represent mean ± SD. p Values were determined with ( A – G ) Student’s t test, ( J ) one-way ANOVA, or ( K and L ) two-way ANOVA.
