VEGF induces Cofilin1 phosphorylation in Emx1+/+ NSCs. (A) Western blot analysis of NSC lysates for p-Cofilin1, Cofilin1, VEGF receptor 2 FLK and actin from both Emx1 genotypes treated with VEGF (V) (50 ng/ml) or medium (C) for 1 h in the presence EGF, or EGF+FGF as indicated. VEGF increased the level of p-Cofilin1in the Emx1+/+ NSCs cultured in EGF or EGF+FGF, compared to those treated with medium (*p < 0.05). In contrast, Emx1−/− NSCs expressed significantly less amount of p-Cofilin1 whether in the absence (**p < 0.01) or presence of VEGF (***p < 0.005), compared to that of the Emx1+/+ NSCs (B). VEGF increased FLK expression only in the Emx1+/+ NSCs (C, *p < 0.05). N = 3/group.
