Akt (pan) in 293T Human Cell Line.

Akt pan specific (panels A and C) and Akt1 (E17K Mutation) (panels B and D) were detected in immersion fixed 293T human embryonic kidney cell line transfected with wild type (panels A and B) or E17K mutated (panels C and D) Akt1 using Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Akt Pan Specific Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB2055) and Mouse Anti-Human Akt1 (E17K Mutation) Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB6815). Both antibodies were used at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to plasma membranes and cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.

Activation of ErbB and WNT signaling pathways in kidneys from Cdh16Cre::Tfebfs mice.Transcriptional and biochemical analyses were performed on Cdh16Cre and Cdh16Cre::Tfebfs mice. (A,B) Tables show the relative increase of genes related to the ErbB (A) and WNT (B) pathways in the microarray analyses performed on kidneys from P0 Cdh16Cre::Tfebfs mice. Graphs show real-time PCR validations performed on kidneys from Cdh16Cre::Tfebfs mice at different stages (P0, P12, P30).
