Figure Lengend Snippet: Restoration of synchrony loss in primary neurons from αSyn transgenic mice upon SNX5 knockdown. a Experimental timeline of primary neuron isolation, maturation and siPOOL application in vitro; DIV, days in vitro. b Quantification of SNX5 mRNA expression in primary neurons from the transgenic Thy1-αSyn (Line 61) mouse model. The cells were transfected with siPOOL siRNAs against SNX5 or a negative control siRNA, or untransfected. c Multiwell microelectrode array (MEA) measurement of neuronal synchrony at 18 h after application of DMSO (left side bars) or 50 µmol/L bafilomycin A1 in DMSO of the same conditions as described in panel b . The graph shows results from 1 out of 3 representative technical replicates; bars represent mean ± SEM; n.s. = not significant, * P < 0.05; Two-way ANOVA with Sidak’s post-hoc test
Article Snippet: The plates were transferred daily into the Maestro Edge MEA system (Axion Biosystems) for evaluation of cellular functions during maturation.
