Figure Lengend Snippet: CaSR traffics to Rab4 pathways and recycles by Rab4 and Rab11 (A and B) BRET between Venus-Rab4 and CaSR-Nluc-WT or CaSR-Nluc-AA ( N = 7), or CaSR-Nluc-WT in HEK-AP2σ-WT or HEK-AP2σ-R15H cells ( N = 9), with (B) AUC. (C) BRET between Rab4-Venus and CaSR-Nluc-WT, with vehicle (DMSO) or Dyngo-4a. N = 5. (D) SIM of SNAP-CaSR-647 and Venus-Rab4. Scale, 5 μm. Arrows show colocalization. N = 23 (0 mM), N = 22 (3 mM) from N = 4 biological replicates. (E) SIM images of cells exposed to FLAG antibody and either non-permeabilized (total) or exposed to 0 or 3 mM Ca 2+ e for 30 min or 30 min with 3-h recovery, before acid strip to remove cell surface FLAG. Internalization occurs in cells stimulated with 3 mM Ca 2+ e conditions other than plates incubated at 4°C to block endocytosis. Cells transfected with Rab4 siRNA and Rab11-DN have reduced receptor recycling (seen as FLAG expression at cell surfaces) than cells transfected with scrambled siRNA or Rab11-WT. Scale, 5 μm. (F) Non-permeabilized cells incubated with FLAG antibody and exposed to 0 or 3 mM Ca 2+ e for 30 min or 30 min with 3-h recovery to monitor recycling. Comparisons to 3 mM (30 min) in black, to 3 mM (30 min with recovery) in red, and to 0 mM (30 min with recovery) in blue. N = 5. (G) Antibody feeding in cells transfected with scrambled siRNA, Rab4 siRNA, or Rab11a-dominant negative (DN). Comparisons to 0 min (blue). N = 5. (H) Antibody feeding assays in which permeabilized cells were incubated with FLAG antibody and exposed to 0 or 3 mM Ca 2+ e for 30 min or 30 min with 3-h recovery. Statistics show comparisons to 3 mM (30 min) in black, to 3 mM (30 min with recovery) in red, and to 0 mM (30 min with recovery) in blue. N = 5. (I) Antibody feeding assays in cells transfected with scrambled siRNA, Rab4 siRNA, or Rab11a-DN and permeabilized to monitor total CaSR. Statistical analyses show comparisons to 0 min in blue and between 0 and 3 mM in each condition in black. N = 4. Statistical analyses were performed using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple-comparisons test for (B), unpaired t test in (C), and one-way ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple-comparisons test in (F)–(I). ∗∗∗∗ p < 0.0001, ∗∗∗ p < 0.001, ∗∗ p < 0.01, ∗ p < 0.05. Data shows mean + SEM in A–C,and F–I.
