Figure Lengend Snippet: The expression of integrins and gangliosides on/in cells and EVs. Cell surface expression of gangliosides, GD3 and GD2, and that of integrins, β 1, β 2, β 3, β 4, β 5, β 6, β 7, β 8, α 2, α 3, α 4, α 5, α 6, and α v , were analyzed by flow cytometry. Anti-GD3 mAb (R24), anti-GD2 mAb (220-51), anti-integrin β 1 ~β 8 Abs, anti-integrin α 2 ~α 6 Abs, or anti-integrin α v Ab were used as primary antibodies, and FITC-labeled secondary antibodies were used ( A ). The expression levels of integrin β 1, α 3, and α v were analyzed in both GD3/GD2(+) and (-) cell-derived EVs by Tim4-bead flow cytometry ( B ). Red lines are results with individual mAbs, and black lines are of negative controls. The expression of integrin β 1 and α 3 was observed in GT16 and CV2 cells and also in EVs derived from them by IB using lysates (1 μg) of both cells and EVs. Anti-integrin β 1 Ab and anti-integrin α 3 Ab were used as primary antibodies, and HRP-labelled secondary Ab was used ( Ci ). The intensity of the obtained bands in Ci was measured and plotted ( Cii,Ciii ). Representative results from repeated experiments (at least 3 times) are presented.
Article Snippet: After removing the insoluble cell debris through repeated centrifugation, the supernatants (cell lysates) were used for immunoprecipitation with mouse anti-integrin β 1 mAb (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) at 4 °C overnight with rotation.
