doi: 10.3390/ijms232416164
Figure Lengend Snippet: Immunofluorescence of endogenous TRPM8 in DRG cells and slices from the TRPM8 KO mouse. ( A , C ) Immunocytochemistry. ( B , D ) Immunohistochemistry. ( A – D left) Confocal images of TRPM8 KO ( Trpm8 EGFPf ; B6;129S1(FVB)- Trpm8 tm1Apat /J) sensory neurons. EGFP (green), TRPM8 antibody (red) and βIII-Tubulin (grey). Scale bar: 50 µm. ( A – D right) Box plots represent specificity ratio (SR) for each dilution of the respective antibody. Each dot corresponds to an individual EGFP+ cell. Box contains the 25th to 75th percentiles. Whiskers mark the 5th and 95th percentiles. The line inside the box denotes the median and the black dot represents the mean (** p < 0.01, Mann–Whitney test). ( E,F ) Bar histograms summarizing the SR mean ± SEM of each TRPM8 antibody in the KO and the reporter ( Trpm8 BAC -EYFP + , named M8-EYFP in the figure) mouse in ICC ( E ) and IHC ( F ). Dashed line indicates mean SR for the control without primary antibody (** p < 0.01, Mann–Whitney test). n = at least 22 cells; 4 pictures from 2 mice for each antibody and dilution.
