Western blot analysis: Extracts of BJAB-wild-type and SUDHL4-wild-type (“WT”) cells and the corresponding miR-142 knockout (“KO”) cells were separated on a 10% polyacrylamide gel, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane and incubated with antibodies against <t>PKN2,</t> Ezrin and β-actin as a loading control. The membranes were incubated with the appropriate secondary antibodies coupled to horseradish peroxidase. Bound secondary antibodies were visualized by ECL. The bands were quantified using Image Lab 6.0.1. The mean value of two separate experiments is shown above the bands. The wild-type value was set to 1. The uncropped blots are shown in Figure S4.

    PKN2 silencing in vivo decreases glucose uptake and activates AMPK. Contralateral tibialis anterior muscles were electroporated with shRNA targeting PKN2 or scrambled control. Seven days following electroporation, 4-h fasted mice were administered an oral glucose load (3 g/kg), followed by ip injection of [3H]deoxyglucose. Tibialis anterior muscle was harvested 2 h following the oral glucose challenge and analyzed for PKN2, P-AMPKThr172, AMPK, P-ACC Ser79, and ACC protein abundance (representative immunoblot from n = 7 mice) (A), quantification of PKN2 protein abundance (B), in vivo glucose uptake (C), intramuscular glycogen content (D), quantification of p-AMPK Thr172 abundance (E), and p-ACC Ser79 abundance (F) in PKN2 shRNA-treated mouse tibialis anterior muscle. *Paired t-test, P < 0.05.
