Dye efflux from Neuro2a cells expressing Cx31.3 and controls. Neuro2a cells expressing Cx31.3 or transfected with empty vector were pre-loaded with the AM ester of Calcein Blue. After 20 minutes, the average normalized intensity of cells expressing Cx31.3 dropped 9.4 +/- 0.9% compared with 6.2 +/- 0.5% for control cells (p<0.05). Treatment with octanol decreased the reduction in fluorescence intensity to 2 +/- 0.6%. (p<0.05 compared to Cx31.3 non-octanol treated).
