B. Western blot analysis of lysates from Mtmr2-/- cultures treated using 10ng/ml rhTACE showing Nrg1 expression and Akt activation (S473 phosphorylation). Each lane is a lysate of at least n=10 DRGs/coverslips. In Mtmr2-/- (10ng/ml rhTACE) as compared to Mtmr2-/- (NT), Nrg1(150 KDa)/actin ratio is 0.8:1; Nrg1(65 KDa)/actin ratio is 0.48:1; and p-Akt/Akt/actin ratio is 0.6:1.
