Fig. 2.
Translocation of PKC isozymes in basophils stimulated with PMA. Basophils (purity = 80% ± 3%, n = 4) were incubated with or without PMA (100 ng/mL) for 15 minutes. The membrane and cytosol fractions were subjected to Western blot analysis and the band intensities were quantified by digital imaging. The top panel shows a representative Western blots from one experiment and the lower panel shows the amount of each isozyme in the cytosol or membrane expressed as a percentage of either component divided by the sum of both components [eg, cytoscol/(cytosol + membrane)]. Data are presented as mean ± SEM for four experiments. * P < .05, ***P < .001 (paired t-test).
