a Western blot showing staining of a protein band at approximately 40 kDa (arrow) in tube feet extracts using anti-Gαi. b Immunofluoresence (green) staining of Gαi protein in COTS tube foot tissue section. Blue represents DAPI nuclear fluorescence. c A higher-resolution micrograph of the area boxed in (b). d Negative control showing only nuclear staining. e Immunofluoresence (green) staining of Gαi protein in COTS sensory tentacles. f A higher-resolution micrograph of the area boxed in (e). g Negative control showing only nuclear staining. AE, adhesive epidermis; NE, Non-adhesive epidermis; CT, connective tissue layer; M, myomesothelium; NP, nerve plexus; C, cuticle. Scale bars = 200 μm
