Abstract:
A simple method for isolation and fluorescence labelling of Leydig cells (L-cells) from rat testes was developed. Lateral diffusion coefficients of both lipid and protein membrane fluorescent probes were measured by the method of fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP). Age-dependent changes in diffusibility of membrane lipids and proteins were discovered.
