Effect of MβCD on the distribution of flotillin-1 and cholesterol in microdomain fractions. After 30 min incubation of fibroblast with serum-free DMEM in the presence of 10 mM MβCD (MβCD (+)) or in the absence of MβCD (MβCD (-)), cell lysates were subjected to ultracentrifugation (268,000 × g for 4 h at 4°C) and split into nine fractions. (A) Dot blot analyses of flotillin-1. (B) Semi-quantitative TLC analyses of cholesterol. Open circles, no treatment; closed circles, treatment with MβCD. Values are the means ± S.D. (n = 3).
