Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression of oligodendrocyte marker O4 by OPCs incubated with H. elongata and S. fusiforme lipid extracts. The surface area percentage of O4 staining, as a marker of pre-oligodendrocytes, was determined on cultured OPCs incubated with lipid extracts of H. elongata and S. fusiforme . The extracts were added based on saringosterol concentration, with a final saringosterol concentration of 0.6 µM. The O4 expression was normalized to the surface area percentage of a DAPI staining and expressed as fold change relative to ethanol-incubated cells. Representative images of the O4 and DAPI staining are presented. Data are presented as mean ± SEM ( n = 5) and were analyzed with one-way ANOVA (with Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test) (* p < 0.05).
Article Snippet: This was followed by a 4 h incubation with a mouse anti-O4 IgM (1:1000; R&D Systems) antibody at room temperature.
