Arf6 and Arf1 knockdown with siRNA also blocks direct lysosomal transport of APP. a SN56 cells were transfected with HA-βAPP-CFP (not shown) and LAMP1-mRFP (red), and siRNAs against Arf6 and Arf1. Cells were surface labeled on ice for with 647-labeled Anti-HA antibodies for 30 min and allowed to internalize APP for 15 min at 37 °C. Co-localized pixels are shown in white. Scale bar = 5 microns. The approximate outline of each cell is superimposed for clarity. b Co-localization of internalized APP and LAMP1 in the presence of ARF6 and Arf1 siRNAs was quantitated in at least 30 cells from at drawn from at least 3 experiments. * denotes p < 0.05. c Western blots demonstrating Arf6 and Arf1 are knocked down with increasing amounts of siRNA. d) were quantitated in from at least 3 experiments. These are normalized to tubulin expression and quantified
