The effects of ELR-negative CXC chemokines on EGF-induced cell migration (a), EGF-induced calpain activation (b), and PDGF-induced motility (c). (a) Cells were grown to confluence and quiesced for 48 h before treatment with or with out IP-10 (50 ng/ml), MIG (100 ng/ml), PF4 (50 ng/ml), and/or EGF (1 nM). Cell migration assays were performed as described in Materials and Methods. The data are shown as the ratio to the 1 nM EGF-induced cell migrative activity. The data are the mean ± SEM of at least three independent studies each performed in triplicate. Statistical analyses were performed by Student's t test as compared with EGF-induced cell migrative capacity in the absence of CXC chemokines: **P < 0.01. (b) Cells were grown to confluence in 10-cm tissue culture plates and quiesced for 48 h. Cells were treated with or without IP-10 (50 ng/ml), MIG (100 ng/ml), and/or PF4 (50 ng/ml) for 4 h before EGF (1 nM) for 30 min. Calpain activities were analyzed by measuring the elevation in fluorescence intensity that occurs upon calpainolytic digestion of dichlorotriazinylamino-fluorescein–labeled MAP2. The data are shown as a ratio to EGF-induced calpain activation. The data are the mean ± SEM of at least three independent studies. Statistical analyses were performed by Student's t test as compared with EGF-induced calpain activation in the absence of CXC chemokines: **P < 0.01. (c) Cells were grown to confluence and quiesced for 48 h before treatment with or without IP-10 (50 ng/ml), Rp-8-Br-cAMPS (50 μM), and/or PDGF-BB (5 ng/ml). Cell migration assays were performed as described in Materials and Methods. The data are shown as the ratio to the 5 ng/ml PDGF-induced cell migrative activity. The data are the mean ± SEM of two independent studies each performed in triplicate. Statistical analyses were performed by Student's t test.
