Study on the reversibility of selected agents on ER and Golgi disruption. U2OS cells stably coexpressing GALT1-GFP and CALR-RFP were pre-treated by the selected secretion inhibitors at selected concentrations (20 μM for cyclosporin A, fendiline, parbendazole, paroxetine, parthenolide, quinacrine, sertraline, spiperone, thimerosal; 10 μM for astemizole and perhexiline) for 4 h. Then the drugs were washed out and replaced with fresh medium for cells to recover from treatments. After different recovery periods, the cells were fixed for image acquisition and analysis (A). Representative images of control cells and BFA, parbendazole, and cyclosporine A treated cells after different recovery periods are reported (B), scale bar equals 10 μm. Quantitative data was normalized to untreated controls and summarized to a heat map. Each block represents the mean value of 4 repeated measurements (C,D). Statistical analysis was performed by means of multiple t test, *p < 0.001 as compared to untreated controls.
