Functional Studies - (±)-Palmitoylcarnitine chloride, Protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor (ab141122)ab59720 staining ZO1 in Caco-2 cells treated with (±)-palmitoylcarnitine chloride (ab141122), by ICC/IF. Membranar ZO1 expression loss correlates with increased concentration of (±)-palmitoylcarnitine chloride, as described in literature.
The cells were incubated at 37°C for 1 hour in media containing different concentrations of ab141122 ((±)-palmitoylcarnitine chloride) in DMSO, fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 10 minutes at room temperature and blocked with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% tween for 2h at room temperature. Staining of the treated cells with ab59720 (0.5 µg/ml) was performed overnight at 4°C in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.1% tween. A DyLight 488 anti-rabbit polyclonal antibody (ab96899) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI and are shown in blue.
