    PGE2 reduces <t>CAV1/E-cad</t> complex formation and augments phosphorylation of CAV1 on tyrosine-14 in B16F10 cells. B16F10 (mock) and B16F10 (CAV1) cells were cultured in the presence of IPTG (1 mM) and then transiently transfected (or not) with pBATEM to overexpress E-cad. After 48 h, cell extracts from B16F10 (mock), B16F10 (CAV1), B16F10 (mock/E-cad), and B16F10 (CAV1/E-cad) cells were separated using SDS-PAGE in 12% minigels (50 μg total protein per lane). CAV1 and E-cad levels were evaluated via Western blotting using specific antibodies. Actin was used as a loading control. ( A ) Results from a representative immunoblot experiment. CAV1 ( B ) and E-cad ( C ) protein levels were quantified in several experiments via scanning densitometry and normalized to actin. ( D ) B16F10 (mock/E-cad) or B16F10 (CAV1/E-cad) cells were serum deprived for 5 h and treated or not with PGE2 (20 μM) for 2 h. Then, CAV1 was immunoprecipitated from protein extracts using a polyclonal antibody. Immunoprecipitated CAV1 and co-immunoprecipitated E-cad were detected via immunoblotting. The left panel shows a representative result, and the blot on the right shows the total protein input of each sample. ( E ) The values in the graph show the CAV1/E-cad ratios normalized to actin. ( F ) Protein extracts from B16F10 (mock) and B16F10 (CAV1) cells treated with 20 μM PGE2 or vehicle (control) for 2 h. Phospho-CAV1 (pY14-CAV1) and CAV1 and E-cad levels were evaluated via immunoblotting. Results from a representative experiment are shown. ( G ) pY14-CAV1, CAV1, and E-cad levels were quantified via scanning densitometry and are shown as the pY14-CAV1/CAV1 ratio standardized to mock (−) controls. Values in all graphs are the mean ± SD, n = 3; * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001.
