Serum depletion elicited more TNT formation and Rabs may be involved in TNT development. (a) More TNTs formed under serum-free medium compared with control group. Scale bars, 100 μm. Quantification of TNT induction (n=3). Data represented mean±S.E., **P<0.01 compared with control groups. (b) Relative Rab8a and Rab11a mRNA expression level. *P<0.05 and **P<0.01 versus control. (c) Experiment procedure for co-culture of RFP and EGFP-expressing SCs. (d) When stress was applied to red cells, TNTs developed from RFP-SCs toward GFP-SCs. Scale bars, 20 μm
