(a) Effect of AURKB inhibition on renewal of depleted Mist1-positive acinar cells. The detrimental effect of AURKB inhibition on acinar renewal was confirmed with Mist1 staining. AURKB selective inhibition seized Mist1 transcriptional and protein levels in an injury-like status in the SMGs challenged with poly (I:C). Scale bar = 10 µm. (b) Effect of AURKB blockade on progenitor expansion. The K5+ progenitor compartment did not show similar dependence on AURKB for replenishment and expansion. Note that AZD1152-HPQA partly prevented the extensive expansion of K5 progenitors, 96 hrs post poly (I:C), in contrast to the Mist1-sustained depletion. Scale bar = 20 µm.
