Figure Lengend Snippet: Focal cerebral ischemia increases PAK1 phosphorylation (A) Representative image of blood flow measured by laser speckle flowmeter. (B) The time-dependent changes of PAK1 and p-PAK1 in ischemic cortex at 1 h, 6 h, 12 h, or 24 h reperfusion after 1-h transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO). The homogenates of cortical brains from tMCAO and sham treated mice were subjected to Western blot analysis using indicated antibodies. GAPDH was used as a loading control. (C and D) The quantitative analysis of immunoblotted p-PAK1 (Ser144) and PAK1 proteins. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 4). ∗p < 0.05 versus sham, one-way ANOVA with Dunnet’s post hoc test. (E) Immunofluorescence images showing the colocalization of PAK1-positive (green) with microvessel markers Lectin (red) in the ipsilateral (I)/contralateral (C) cortex at 1 h reperfusion after tMCAO. White arrow shows that PAK1 is localized on blood vessels. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). Scale bar = 20 μm. See also Figure S1 .

Figure Lengend Snippet: PAK1 inhibition by its inhibitors or siRNA reduces the hyperpermeability of bEnd.3 endothelial monolayer in OGD model (A) Immunoblots of p-PAK1 and PAK1 with corresponding antibodies in bEnd.3 cells at reperfusion for indicated times after 2 h OGD. GAPDH was used as a loading control. (B and C) The statistical analysis of immunoblotted p-PAK1 (Ser144) and PAK1 proteins. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 4). ∗p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01 versus control groups, one-way ANOVA with Dunnet’s post hoc test. (D) Schematic representation of the in vitro BBB model. bEnd.3 cells were planted on microporous membrane of transwell inserts till confluence. After OGD/R treatment, the fluorescence dyes were added to upper compartment and the fluorescence intensity of lower compartment was measured 30 min later. (E and F) The transfer rate of dextran from upper compartment to lower compartment was examined to assess the endothelial monolayer permeability. Consistent diffused 4.4 kDa TRITC-dextran or 70 kDa FITC-dextran during reoxygenation after 2 h OGD was limited by FRAX486 (1 μmol/L) or IPA-3 (10 μmol/L) treatment. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 5). ∗p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001 versus ctrl group; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001 versus OGD + vehicle group, two-way ANOVA with Turkey’s post hoc test. (G) The endothelial monolayer permeability was further expressed as coefficient of diffusion (in centimeters per second). FRAX486 (1 μmol/L) or IPA-3 (10 μmol/L) treatment significantly reduced the increased permeability of bEnd.3 monolayer to 4.4 kDa TRITC-dextran or 70 kDa FITC-dextran by exposure to OGD/R 3 h. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 5). ∗∗∗p < 0.001 versus ctrl group; #p < 0.05 versus OGD + vehicle (veh) group, one-way ANOVA with Sidak’s post hoc test. (H) PAK1 expression in bEnd.3 cells is downregulated by specific siPAK1, not siNC. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 3). ∗∗∗p < 0.001, Student’s t test. (I) Increased endothelial monolayer permeability of bEnd.3 cells to 4.4 kDa TRITC-dextran or 70 kDa FITC-dextran at OGD/R 3h was inhibited by siPAK1. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 5). ∗∗p < 0.01 versus ctrl group; #p < 0.05 versus OGD + siNC group, one-way ANOVA with Sidak’s post hoc test. See also Figure S2 .
