Reduced kindlin-3 expression impairs leupaxin recruitment to podosomes. (A) IF staining of a K3−/− preosteoclast retrovirally transduced with EGFP-K3 (green), for leupaxin (red) and F-actin (white/blue in merge). (B) IF stainings of K3+/+ and K3n/− preosteoclasts for paxillin (green), leupaxin (red), and actin (white/blue in merge). (C) Western blot analyses on lysates of K3+/+, K3+/n, K3n/n, and K3n/− macrophages for leupaxin, paxillin, PTP-PEST, and talin expression. (D) Densitometric quantification of leupaxin expression in K3n/− macrophages relative to WT cells. All values were normalized to the corresponding GAPDH signal. n = 6. Scale bars, 10 µm. Dotted white lines mark cell borders.
