iFGFR1 activation in vivo promotes recruitment of CX3CR1-positive macrophages.MMTV-iFGFR1 transgenic mice were treated with B/B in order to analyze the population of macrophages that are recruited to the mammary epithelium during early stages of iFGFR1-induced mammary tumorigenesis. A) MMTV-iFGFR1 mice treated with B/B demonstrated an increase in macrophage recruitment after 10 days as indicated by an increased in the number of F4/80 positive cells. MMTV-iFGFR1 mice treated with anti-CX3CR1 in conjunction with B/B demonstrated a reduction in macrophage recruitment at 10 days indicating that iFGFR1 activation is responsible for recruiting a subset of macrophages that express CX3CR1. ***p<0.0001. Error bars represent SEM. B) Representative image of macrophages associated with budding epithelial structures in mammary glands from mice treated with control IgG antibody. C) Representative image of macrophages associated with budding epithelial structures in mammary glands from mice treated with anti-CX3CR1. Red = F4/80 staining, blue = DAPI. Scale bars represent 50 µM. Results in each figure panel are representative of a minimum of three different mice for each treatment group and genotype.

Blocking the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase type 1 (TIMP-1) in MSC-CM reduced its pro-oligodendroglial activity on cultured aNSCs. Representative immunocytochemical staining of 2′,3′-cyclic-nucleotide 3′-phosphodiesterase (CNPase)- (A) and GFAP-positive (B) cells treated either with control (no antibody), anti-TIMP-1, or immunoglobulin G (IgG) control pre-incubated with alpha-MEM or MSC-CM after 3 days in culture. (C) Quantification of CNPase- and GFAP-positive (D) cell numbers. Number of experiments n = 4.

Localisation of Sox17 staining in proliferative and secretory phase endometrial tissue and regulation by hormones. Within the proliferative (A) and secretory (B) endometrium, Sox17 localized to the glandular (open arrowheads) and luminal (closed arrowheads) epithelium, with staining appearing in an irregular, patchy, pattern. Smaller inset boxes show relevant IgG negative controls. Imaged at 20x magnification, scale bar = 50 μm. Treatment of endometrial luminal epithelial (ECC-1) cells with 10−8 M estrogen (estradiol)/10−7 M progesterone (medroxyprogesterone acetate) (, *p < 0.05) resulted in an upregulation of Sox17 protein, when compared to untreated, estradiol only (■, E) treatment groups. (C,D) Data presented as mean ± SEM, n = 5. Representative Western immunoblot shown.

Knockdown of SOX17 results in reduced expression in endometrial luminal epithelial cells. Transfection of ECC-1 cells with a CRISPR/Cas9 SOX17 knock down plasmid resulted in decreased SOX17 expression (KD1-5) when compared to untransfected control ECC-1 cells (ECC-1) and ECC-1 cells transfected with a control plasmid (CP). Analysed by Western immunoblot, representative blot shown.
