Fig. 7. Evaluation of other vesicular trafficking proteins as possible marker of
carriers of the minor regulated pathway. Parotid tissue was processed for
immunofluorescence without (Ctl) or with (Cch) a 3 minute treatment with 40 nM
CCh. Immunofluorescent specimens have been counterstained with
BODIPY-phallacidin (green) for actin in each case. (A) VAMP2 (red) staining of
control tissue; (B) VAMP2 (red) staining of stimulated tissue; (C) Rab11 (red)
staining of control tissue; (D) Rab11 (red) staining of stimulated tissue.
Solid arrowheads identify prospective subapical foci of VAMP2 and Rab 11, and
open arrowheads identify some of the foci that have relocated to the luminal
side of the actin band. Bar, 10 µm.
