    Functional Studies - Zaprinast, cGMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor (ab120940)

    ab76165 staining ERK1 + ERK2 (phospho T202 + Y204) in U87MG cells treated with zaprinast (ab120940), by ICC/IF. Increase of ERK1 + ERK2 (phospho T202 + Y204) expression correlates with increased concentration of zaprinast, as described in literature.
    The cells were incubated at 37°C for 24 hours in media containing different concentrations of ab120940 (zaprinast) in DMSO, fixed with 100% methanol for 5 minutes at -20°C 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 ab76165 (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.
