Fig 5. Role of Vav1 in TEM by NK cells.

Fig 5

A) Immunoblots with anti-HS1 and anti-Vav1 showing depletion of HS1 and Vav1 after 72 hrs of siRNA treatment. B) Decrease in TEM in transwell assay by NK cells treated with Vav1 siRNA, compared to control siRNA. Number of cells in the lower chamber, as a percentage of the mean of the control sample value on each day, with box and whisker plots. Boxes: 25th to 75th percentiles; whiskers: minimum and maximum values. N = 6. Asterisks indicate **P<0.005 (unpaired Student’s t-test). C) Left panel: Immunoblot with anti-HS1. The left lane shows the absence of HS1 in an anti-HS1 immunoprecipitate from a whole-cell lysate of NK cells treated with siRNA targeting HS1. The right lane shows the result for cells treated with control siRNA. Middle panel: Immunoblot with anti-Vav1. The left lane shows the presence of Vav1 protein in an anti-HS1 precipitate from a lysate of NK cells treated with control siRNA. The right lane shows the presence of Vav1 in the lysate. Right panel: Similar to the middle panel, except with a lysate from NK cells depleted for HS1.
