Fig. 2. Subcellular localization of Bcl-2 and components of the adherens junction,
tight junction and desmosomes in MCF-7 and MCF-7B cells. Cultures were grown
on glass coverslips to confluence, formaldehyde fixed, CSK permeabilized and
stained with antibodies to Bcl-2, and the indicated junctional proteins at
concentrations listed in Table
1. Primary antibodies were detected by FITC- or
rhodamine-conjugated species-specific secondary antibodies and viewed with a
100x objective using a BX50 Olympus microscope. Images were captured
using Advance Spot software. Scale bar: 50 µm.
