Figure 7. Spatial segregation of SNAP-23 and eNOS from CAV1 in (sub)confluent cells.
Confluent and subconfluent HUVEC, grown on coverslips, were fixed and subjected to confocal fluorescent microscopy using specific antibodies to (A) CAV1 and (B) SNAP-23 in comparison with eNOS. Note the clear spatial separation of CAV1 in subconfluent cells from the similar localization patterns of SNAP-23 and eNOS at the PM. Scale bars represent 10 μm.
