RPM migration and length of membrane protrusions. (a) Migration into “scratch wounds” of ex vivo SerpinB2−/− and SerpinB2+/+ RPM seeded onto Matrigel-coated wells analyzed using the standard IncuCyte scratch wound assay. Data was generated (for both SerpinB2−/− and SerpinB2+/+ RPM) from 3 pools of RPM, each derived from 3 mice, with each pool seeded into 12 wells (i.e. n = 9 SerpinB2−/− and n = 9 SerpinB2+/+ mice). The mean of the 3 pools is shown (n = 3). Statistics by repeat measures ANOVA. (b) As for (a) but using ex vivo RPM from SerpinB2R380A and C57BL/6J mice, one pool of 3 mice (for each strain) and 23 Matrigel coated wells. (c) Western blot of RPM from the indicated mice strains, stained with the murine anti-SerpinB2 antibody. (d) Length of cellular protrusions of RPM within the scratch areas for mice described in (a). The number of cells interrogated is provided within each bar (n), with the longest protrusion from each cell used (i.e. one value for each cell). (e) As for (d) for mice described in (b). (f,g) Representative phase images of the RPM described in (d) at 25 hours post seeding. See also Fig. S3d,e.
