Representative HSP20 immunoblot of homogenates from a swine carotid tissue (lane 1, 15 μl loaded) and six different rabbit bladder tissues (lanes 2–7, 30 μl loaded). The bands have been identified in swine carotid as unphosphorylated (labeled U), monophosphorylated at serine 157 (labeled S157), monophosphorylated at serine 16 (labeled S16), diphosphorylated at serine 16 and 157 (labeled D), There was significantly less HSP20 immunostaining in the bladder compared to swine carotid, suggesting that the HSP20 in bladder could come from contaminating vasculature.
