Fig. 7. Expression of Shh, Ptch1, CCR2, and M1/M2 macrophage markers in organoid/macrophage co-cultures.
A Expression of Shh in EpCAM fractions isolated from vehicle (Veh, 1), vismodegib (Vis, 2), Histamine (Hist, 3), or Vis+Hist (4) treated co-cultures. B Expression of Ptch1 in MΦ fractions isolated from Veh, Vis, Hist, or Vis+Hist treated co-cultures. C Expression of M1 and M2 markers in MΦ fractions isolated from Veh, Vis, Hist, or Vis+Hist treated co-cultures. D Expression of CCR2 in MΦ fractions isolated from Veh, Vis, Hist, or Vis+Hist treated co-cultures. E Protein expression of AKT and pAKT in MΦ fractions isolated from Veh, Vis, Hist, or Vis+Hist treated co-cultures. Quantification of immunoblots in E is shown in (F). G Schematic diagram showing Shh-induced macrophage migration that is Smo-dependent is mediated by AKT signaling. *P < 0.05 compared to vehicle. Data are shown as the mean ± SEM.
