Figure Legend Snippet: Fig. 3. P2Y1 silencing impairs ADP-dependent axon elongation. (A) Hippocampal neurons were nucleofected with scrambled shRNA, P2Y1 shRNA or P2Y13 shRNA. Neurons were fixed at 3 DIV and stained with an anti-a-tubulin antibody. Nucleofected neurons were identified by their GFP fluorescence. (B) HEK- 293T cells were co-transfected with GFP, P2Y1–GFP or P2Y13 plasmids, in combination with different P2Y1 or P2Y13 shRNAs. Data are means ± s.e.m. of three independent experiments. P2Y1–GFP and P2Y13 protein expression was normalized to a-tubulin expression levels; ***P,0.001. (C) Axon length of hippocampal neurons expressing scrambled shRNA, two different P2Y1 shRNAs or two different P2Y13 shRNAs was quantified after staining with antibodies against MAP2 and Tau-1. Data are mean axon lengths ± s.e.m. from three independent experiments, analyzing 100 neurons for each condition in each experiment; ***P,0.001. The dotted grey line indicates the mean axon length of scrambled-shRNA-nucleofected neurons. (D,E) Hippocampal neurons nucleofected with scrambled shRNA or P2Y1 shRNA and treated with ADP (5 mM) from day 1 to day 3 in vitro. The graph in D shows the axon length in nucleofected neurons (GFP-positive) incubated in the presence or absence of ADP. (F–H) Hippocampal neurons nucleofected with scrambled shRNA, P2Y1 shRNA or P2Y13 shRNA and treated with the P2Y1 antagonist (MRS-2179) or the P2Y13 antagonist (MRS-2211) from day 1 to day 3 in vitro. Scale bars: 50 mm. Note that in all cases P2Y1 expression and function is necessary for axon elongation. Data in G are the mean axon lengths ± s.e.m. from three independent experiments, analyzing 100 neurons for each condition in each experiment; ***P,0.001. H shows the distribution of the axon length for all neurons from three independent experiments for each condition (n5300). (I) Hippocampal neurons that had been nucleofected with plasmids expressing GFP, P2Y1–GFP and P2Y13. After 3 DIV neurons were stained for MAP2 and Tau-1 to identify the axon. (J) P2Y1 or P2Y13 mean fluorescence intensity along the axon in control, scrambled shRNA, P2Y1 shRNA or P2Y13 shRNA nucleofected neurons. (K) Graph of the mean axon lengths ± s.e.m. of neurons nucleofected with GFP, P2Y1–GFP or P2Y13 and GFP. Neurons were quantified in three independent experiments, analyzing 100 neurons for each condition in each experiment; ***P,0.001. Scale bars: 100 mm. Box-plot shows the distribution of axon lengths for all the neurons quantified in K.

Figure Legend Snippet: Fig. 5. Adenylate cyclase activity is necessary for ADP–P2Y1-dependent axon elongation. (A) Hippocampal neurons treated with the indicated compounds from day 1 to day 3 in vitro and stained for MAP2 and Tau-1. Scale bar: 100 mm. (B) Axon length in neurons treated with vehicle (black bars) or the indicated adenylate cyclase or cAMP regulators (white bars), in combination with agonists or antagonists of P2Y1 or P2Y13. Graphs represent the mean axon length ± s.e.m. from three independent experiments, analyzing 100 neurons for each condition in each experiment; ***P,0.001, **P,0.01; n.s., not significant. (C,E) Hippocampal neurons nucleofected with P2Y1 shRNA and stained at 3 DIV for Tau-1 or a-tubulin (red). Nucleofected neurons were identified by GFP fluorescence. Neurons were treated with the adenylate cyclase activator forskolin (5 mM) or a PDE4 inhibitor (20 nM). Note that both treatments reversed the negative effects of P2Y1 silencing or P2Y13 expression on axon elongation. The graphs in E show the axonal lengths ± s.e.m. from three independent experiments, analyzing 100 GFP positive neurons for each condition in each experiment; ***P,0.001. (D,F) Neurons nucleofected with P2X7 shRNA or P2X7– GFP expression plasmids and treated from day 1 to day 3 in vitro with the adenylate cyclase inhibitor (SQ-22536) or the adenylate cyclase activator forskolin, respectively. Note that adenylate cyclase activation or increased cAMP levels reversed the negative effect of P2X7–GFP expression on axon elongation. The graphs in F show the axon length ± s.e.m. from three independent experiments analyzing 100 neurons for each condition in each experiment; ***P,0.001. Scale bars: 100 mm.

Figure Legend Snippet: Fig. 6. Adenylate cyclase 5 activity is required for proper axonal elongation in response to ADP or P2X7 inhibition.

Neurons were stained with anti-MAP2 and anti-Tau-1 antibodies. Graph in D shows the mean axonal lengths ± s.e.m. from three independent experiments.

Note that addition of dbcAMP impaired the inhibitory effect of NKY80 on axon growth; ***P,0.001. Data are from three independent experiments analyzing 100 neurons for each condition in each experiment. (F,H) Neurons nucleofected with GFP, P2Y1–GFP, scrambled shRNA, P2X7 shRNA or P2Y13 shRNA were cultured from day 1 to day 3 in vitro with vehicle or the adenylate cyclase 5 inhibitor, NKY80.
