Figure 3. Diagram summarizing the distribution of various BMC components in migrating fiber ends of RCS-rdy+/Lav (control) rats. A: F-actin is shown in red; B: cadherin is shown in blue; C: vinculin is shown in gold; D: β integrin is shown in green. Both F-actin and cadherin were localized to the periphery of the BMC. Vinculin was distributed as scattered punctuate spots, whereas β integrin had a diffuse plaque-like distribution within the BMC.
