Abstract

Specific reagents comprising digitonin bound to latex spheres were used as visual markers for the detection of cholesterol sites on the endothelial cell surface by scanning electron microscopy. The distribution of latex markers in the plasmolemma of the endothelial cells was investigated. These markers have strong bonds with the ligands. This interaction guarantees high specificity of binding between labeled markers and cellular membrane cholesterol.
