Cross Correlation Analysis of the Co-redistribution of Lyn or TfR with Antigen–cross-linked FITC-IgE–FcεRI

		−MβCD ρ		n		+MβCD ρ		n
IgE/Lyn		0.67 ± 0.09		12		0.29 ± 0.16		13
IgE/TfR		0.25 ± 0.16		7		0.15 ± 0.24		9

Quantitative analyses were carried out on fluorescent intensity profiles of equatorial images of individual cells as described in Materials and Methods. The peak values for each cross correlation plot (Eq.1) were averaged to yield a correlation coefficient (ρ) for numerical comparison of the degree of co-redistribution; 1 corresponds to complete co-localization. The correlation coefficients are reported as mean ± SD, and n is the number of individual cells analyzed.
