Figure 2From: Inhibition of gap junctional Intercellular communication in WB-F344 rat liver epithelial cells by triphenyltin chloride through MAPK and PI3-kinase pathwaysInhibition of GJIC by TPTC using the modified scrape-loading/dye transfer method with the Lucifer yellow fluorescent dye. (A) Dose-dependent inhibition of GJIC after 30-min TPTC exposure. (B) Time-dependent inhibition of GJIC exposed to TPTC. Cells were treated with 1.5 ppm TPTC. The results are represented as means ± S.D. of at least three independent experiments. Statistical significance was determined using ANOVA (*p < 0.05).Back to article page
