Fig. 4. HCK regulated macrophage polarization through autophagy.

Fig. 4

A Endogenous HCK interacted with autophagy proteins ATG2A and CBL in macrophage cell line Raw264.7 by IP/WB. B Overexpression of HCK inhibited autophagy flux as more LC3 HiBiT reporter remained. HCK knockdown promoted autophagy flux as less LC3 HiBiT reporter remained. C HCK KO could promote autophagy by increasing LC3II/LC3I and decrease P62 levels with and without 3-MA treatment in mice BMDM cells. Western blots (D) and quantification (E) showed phospho-PI3K and phospho-AKT decreased in HCK KO BMDMs. However, there were no significant differences for phospho-Erk1/2 and phospho-EGFR with HCK KO. F Effect of HCK KO was abrogated in autophagy inducing by PP242 treatment. Baf1: bafilomycin A1. 3-MA: 3-methyladenine. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
