    A) Immunohistochemical (IHC) analyses of tissue microarray (TMA) prepared from primary, lymph node metastatic (LN), and bone metastatic human PCa tissues from the Rapid Autopsy Program of the Pacific Northwest PCa SPORE spotted. B and C) The relative IHC staining strengths of EphA2 and pS897-EphA2 on TMA was scored using 0-3 scale (0, absent; 1, weak; 2, moderate; 3, strong) . Data consists of 27 bone metastatic samples, and 18 soft tissue samples including 10 lymph node, 5 liver, and 3 lung metastatic samples. Comparisons were made using an unpaired t-test (B, p = 0.0003 C, p < 0.0001) D) mRNA expression analysis of human PCa metastatic biopsies revealed that bone metastases have the highest EphA2 expression compared to other sites of disease dissemination. Data from 208 samples from the SU2C/PCF Dream Team. mRNA Expression z-scores relative to all samples (log FPKM Capture) accessed via cBioportal. E) Kaplan-Meier curve of patients with bone metastases according to the levels of EphA2 expression.

    A) Immunoblot analysis of PC3 cells transduced with lentivirus to express WT-EphA2 or S897A-EphA2. Empty vector-transduced cells were used as control. Cells were starved for 24 hours in serum-free medium and stimulated with either FBS alone or FBS togethr with ephrin-A1-Fc. B) PC3 cells overexpressing WT-EphA2 or S897A-EphA2 mutant were xenografted subcutaneously into nude mice (n = 10 per group). Vector alone cells were used as control. Comparison between WT-EphA2 and S897A-EphA2 made with an unpaired t-test at day 46 post-injection (p = 0.0402).

B,C) Quantification of pY588 marking canonical signaling and pS897 marking noncanonical signaling by EphA2, relative to total EphA2 expression. D) Vec. and EA1-expressing PC-3 cells were stimulated with recombinant exogenous EA1-Fc ligand in vitro for the indicated times, and lysates were subject to immunoblot with the indicated antibodies. E) PY99, a monoclonal antibody that recognizes most pY motifs, was used to probe overall pY profiles using lysates from Vec. and EA1-expressing PC-3 cells stimulated with EA1-Fc. N-cadherin and pY416-Src were also probed. F) PC-3 cells expressing EA1 exhibit reduced cell growth in an in vitro cell proliferation assay. G) Vec. control and EA1-expressing cells were implanted subcutaneously into nude mice. Paired t-test to be used to monitor (p = 0.0319). G) Bioluminescence imaging of mice four and six weeks after intratibial injection of PC3-vec. or PC-3-EA1 expressing cells tagged with luciferase. H) X-ray imaging of mice 6 weeks post intratibial injection of PC3-Vec and PC3-EA1 cells.
