Table 2.
Relative amount of F-actin content of PC12 cells determined by TRITC-phalloidin extraction
|
Relative content of F-actin |
---|---|
Control | 100 ± 3.4% (n = 6) |
Cytochalasin D | 61.9 ± 6.2% (n = 6)* |
A23187 | 70.2 ± 3.9% (n = 6)* |
50 mm K+
|
82.4 ± 6.3% (n = 5)*
|
Average content of untreated cells was normalized to 100%. Note the significant reduction of F-actin content in cultures treated with cytochalasin D, A23187, and depolarization with K+, respectively. *p < 0.01 compared with control (t test).
