Figure 6.
IGF-1R localization at points of cell-cell contact. hTCEpi cells were double-labeled with IGF-1Rβ (green) and DRAQ5 (nuclear counterstain, red) after culture in normal growth medium and in basal media for 24 hours. The presence of IGF-1R at cell-cell contacts were seen under both growth and growth factor depleted conditions (arrows). At higher densities, as cells spread out and made contact, there was an increase in the frequency of IGF-1R localizing between cells. Scale: 28.6 µm
