(A) Immunoblot demonstrating efficiency OCTS3 of TR2 knock-down by siRNA (20 nM). (B) The ALK5 selective inhibitor SB-431542 abolishes BMP6-SMAD2 but not SMAD1/5 phosphorylation (upper), while the ALK2 selective inhibitor “type”:”entrez-nucleotide”,”attrs”:”text”:”K02288″,”term_id”:”191391″K02288 abolishes BMP6-SMAD1/5 phosphorylation (lower). (C) Epifluorescence images of PLA (left) showing complexes of SMAD5 (S5) with SMAD2/3 (S2/3) in indicated cell clones upon TGF stimulation (200 pM) for 15 min.

(D) Quantification of SMAD5-SMAD2/3 PLA signals (right) in TGF-stimulated cells with the number of nuclear, cytosolic, and overall PLA foci shown. Data are presented as mean SD ( 7 frames, 20C30 cells each). See S2 Data for underlying data. (E) PLA controls for mutant ECs shown in panel C, 4-Aminobenzoic acid i.e., SMAD5 and SMAD2/3 antibodies alone (upper) or for PLA shown in Fig2E, i.e., SMAD1, SMAD2 antibodies alone (lower).

(A, B) RNA-Seq analysis of WT and BMPR2-deficient ECs under steady-state conditions (= 3 independent replicates). (A) Hierarchical clustering of differentially expressed TGF pathway members. Heatmap color coding shows z-score of differentially regulated genes (red = high; blue = low).

Note that ALK1 and ENG are both significantly reduced in BMPR2-deficient ECs. (C) Verification of increased ITGB1 expression in BMPR2-deficient ECs by qRT-PCR analysis (= 6).

IPs are a representative experiment of two, and ChIP-qPCR was performed in triplicates shown with means + SD. (F) Verification of altered expression in BMPR2-deficient ECs by qRT-PCR analysis ( 4). Statistical significance relative to BMPR2wt was calculated for RPKM values using one-way ANOVA and Bonferroni post hoc test and for qRT-PCR data using the Kruskal-Wallis test with post hoc Dunn test; * 0.05, ** 0.01, *** 0.001, **** 0.001.
