ALX-201-432).
Figure 2: ERK phosphorylation is induced by ANGPTL4 (Intact Form) (rat) (rec.) (His) (Prod. No.
ALX-201-432) in THP-1 cells.Method: THP-1 monocyte cells were serum starved for 16h and then stimulated with ANGPTL4 (rat) (rec.) (His) (500ng/ml) for 1, 2 and 3h, respectively. The cell lysates were subjected to do immunoblotting with antibodies against pERK1/2 or total ERK1/2.
