BACKGROUND: Caveolin-1 Antibody: Caveolin-1 is a scaffolding protein that is the main component of the caveolae plasma membranes found in most cell types (1) . The protein links integrin subunits to the tyrosine kinase FYN, an initiating step in coupling integrins to the Ras-ERK pathway and promoting cell cycle progression (2) . The gene is a tumor suppressor gene candidate and a negative regulator of the Ras-p42/44 mitogen-activated kinase cascade (3) . Mutations in this gene have been associated with Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy (4) .
