Inhibition of ROCK enhances HGF-induced cell protrusions and attenuates the inhibitory effect of ephrin-A1. (A) Y27632 significantly attenuates ephrin-A1–induced inhibition of branching morphogenesis. MDCK branching morphogenesis assay was performed in the absence or presence of 10 μM Y27632. Cell images were taken 24 h later. Bar, 40 μm. (B) Quantitation of branching morphogenesis results in A. Values represent means from six randomly selected fields ± SD. (C) Y27632 inhibits ephrin-A1–induced collapse of preexisting membrane processes. Cell protrusions were induced in collagen gel by HGF in the presence of Y27632 for 24 h. Ephrin-A1–Fc was then added to the growth medium containing fresh HGF and Y27632. Branching morphogenesis response was recorded. Values represent means from six randomly selected fields ± SD.
