CXCR4 interactions with FAK were inhibited by ASK1. Panel A Cell lysates were collected from MLE-12 cells with control shRNA, ASK1-shRNA, or PP5-shRNA, immunoprecipitated with a FAK antibody, and immunoblotted for CXCR4 or FAK. Decreased expression of ASK1 caused a significant increase in CXCR4 associated with FAK as indicated by densitometry analysis (right panel), but decreased expression of PP5 did not affect the interaction (n = 3). Panel B CXCR4 interaction with FAK was significantly increased in cell lysates from ATII cells from ASK1−/− mice compared with cells from wild type (wt) mice (n = 5). Asterisks (*) indicate a significant difference compared to control (control-shRNA or wild type); p < 0.05. Total FAK was immunoblotted as a loading control. Each set of bands shown was cropped from the same blot, and the full-length blots were provided in supplemental data.
