Truncated MCP1 induces phosphorylation of ERM proteins. Mouse BMECs were treated with saline (Ctr, control) or the indicated form of recombinant MCP1 proteins (100 nM) with or without A2AP over time. The phosphorylated ERM proteins (p-ERM) were determined using a phosphorylation-specific antibody for ERM proteins. The level of total ERM (t-ERM) proteins is also shown. Quantitative data of western blots are shown as mean+s.d. (n=3). *P<0.05 (compared with the zero timepoint control).
