Research Abstract |
GLA-induced translocation of several PKC subtypes were observed under fluorescence microscope, and PKCdelta and zeta localized around the nucleus in HeLa cells. Fatty acids accumulated as lipid droplet around the nucleus, which were confirmed by using Nile Red staining and Raman microscope. However, translocated PKCdelta did not seem to co-localize with lipid droplets, suggesting that PKCdelta did not translocate to lipid droplets and might localize at the other organelles such as Golgi apparatus, Endoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria.
