Figure 3. Evaluation of the presence of phosphatidylserine on the outer membrane of the vesicles.

Figure 3

(A) Experimental design scheme. Annexin V coverslips were used in order to test whether oxPL or PL exhibit PS on the outer membrane. (B) Confocal microscopy images of coverslip areas incubated with vesicles containing PS and those prepared without PS. Bar size is 20 μm. (C) Quantification of vesicles bound to coverslip by number of fluorescent particles.

oxPL: Cholesteryl-9-carboxynonanoate phospholipid vesicles; PS: Phosphatidylserine; PL: Phospholipid.
