Fig. 8. Immunohistochemical localisation of phosphorylated p38-MAPK in the
ventricle of isolated amphibian heart perfused with
H2O2. Hearts were perfused (A) under normal conditions,
with 30 µmol l-1 H2O2 for 2 min in (B) the
absence or (D) the presence of 1 µmol l-1 SB203580 or (C) with
0.5 mol l-1 sorbitol for 15 min. Cryosections were incubated with
phosphospecific anti-p38-MAPK antibody (1:200 dilution) and processed as
described in Materials and methods. Representative photographs from three
independent experiments are shown. Immunolocalisation deposits are visualised
with Fast Red chromogen. Scale bar, 20 µm.
