Various histological and molecular biology techniques are employed to study caveolins:
Immunohistochemistry: Used to visualize caveolin expression in tissue sections. Western Blotting: For detecting and quantifying caveolin proteins in cell and tissue lysates. Electron Microscopy: Allows for the observation of caveolae structures at high resolution. Gene Knockout Models: Used to study the physiological roles of caveolins by observing the effects of their absence in organisms.
