EndophilinA2 and EndophilinA3 co-traffic with endosomes. (A) Kymographs (left panels) of co-trafficking of EndophilinA2 and endosomal markers before and after application of 100 ng/ml BDNF in 5 minute TIRF time-lapse images of MEFs co-transfected with GFP-tagged EndophilinA2 and RFP-tagged EEA1, Rab5 (B), Rab7 (C), or Lamp1 (D). Quantitation of recruitment of EndophilinA2 to endosomes and mobility of EndophilinA2-positive endosomes (before or after administering 100 ng/ml BDNF) by percent of EndophilinA2 and endosomal kymograph tracks colocalizing, and percent of co-localizing mobile endosomes (A–D, right panels). (E) Kymographs of co-trafficking of EndophilinA3 and RFP-tagged Rab5 (E), Rab7 (F), or Lamp1 (G). Quantitation of recruitment of EndophilinA3 to endosomes before and after administering BDNF, by percent of tracks colocalizing, and percent of co-localizing mobile endosomes (E–G, right panels); n = 8–10 images per condition from 3 independent cell cultures, significance determined by unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-test non-stimulated to stimulated conditions, error = SEM, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, scale bar = 10 µm.
