doi: 10.1002/advs.202515584
Figure Lengend Snippet: Rnf43 regulates the level of TJ through Fzd4. A) Immunofluorescent staining for Zo‐1 with bEnd.3 lacking Fzd4, Fzd6 or Fzd10. Scale bar, 50 µm. B) WB detection for TJ proteins and β‐catenin with bEnd.3 lacking Fzd4, Fzd6 or Fzd10. C) Statistic analysis of relative intensity of TJ proteins and β‐catenin in WB detection, n=4. D) Co‐IP detection of Rnf43 and Fzd4. E) Co‐location detection of Rnf43 and Fzd4. Scale bar, 10 µm. F) WB detection for Fzd4 after Rnf43 knockdown. G) Statistic analysis of relative intensity of Fzd4 in WB detection, n=4. H) Detection of Fzd4 after Rnf43 knockdown. Scale bar, 10 µm. I) Statistic analysis of relative signal intensity of Fzd4, n=4. Data were presented as mean ± SEM, one‐way ANOVA, Two‐tailed Student's t ‐test, ns, no significant difference, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001.
