    Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - SB 202190, cell-permeable p38 MAPK inhibitor (ab120638)

    Anti-LAMP2A antibody - Lysosome Marker ab18528 staining Lamp2a in CaCO2 cells treated with SB 202190 (ab120638), by ICC/IF. Increase of Lamp2a expression correlates with increased concentration of SB 202190, as described in literature.
    The cells were incubated at 37°C for 3 hours in media containing different concentrations of ab120638 (SB 202190) 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 Anti-LAMP2A antibody - Lysosome Marker ab18528 (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 (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (DyLight® 488) preadsorbed ab96899) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI and are shown in blue.
