• 
  Western blot analysis of Cytokeratin 18 expression in Hela (A), COS7 (B), 293T (C) whole cell lysates.
• 
  Immunofluorescent analysis of Cytokeratin 18 staining in HeLa cells. Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with the primary antibody in 3% BSA-PBS and incubated overnight at 4 °C in a hidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a AF488-conjugated secondary antibody (green) in PBS at room temperature in the dark.
