Figure 7From: ZIP8 expression in human proximal tubule cells, human urothelial cells transformed by Cd+2 and As+3 and in specimens of normal human urothelium and urothelial cancerImmunofluorescent localization of ZIP8 in UROtsa parent and transformed cell lines. ZIP8 was found to concentrate heavily in the paranuclear region of the cells along with a punctate staining that extended throughout the cytoplasm, indicative of association with the endoplasmic reticulum. The parent UROtsa cells are shown in A, D, G while the transformed cells As#5 are shown in B, E, H and Cd#7 are shown in C, F, I. ZIP8 staining is shown in green while the nuclear dye To-PRO-3 iodide is shown in red. Single Z-series slices are shown in A - C while orthogonal views in the X- and Y-planes are shown in D-F and G-I respectively. Bar = 10 μm and represents the scale for A - C.Back to article page
