Figure Lengend Snippet: FABP5 MUT fails to rescue hippocampal DSI in FABP5 KO mice (A) Astrocytic expression of FABP5 MUT in the CA1 region of FABP5 KO mice. a 1 , Low magnification image of FABP5, s100β, and DAPI labeling in the CA1 region. Scale bar: 100 μm. a 2 -a 4 , High magnification immunostaining of FABP5 labeling, s100β, and merge. Scale bar: 10 μm. (B) Neuronal expression of FABP5 MUT in the CA1 region of FABP5 KO mice. b 1 , Low magnification image of FABP5, NeuN, and DAPI labeling in the CA1 region. Scale bar: 100 μm. b 2 -b 4 , High magnification immunostaining of FABP5, NeuN, and merge with DAPI. Scale bar: 10 μm. (C) Expression of FABP5 MUT in FABP5 KO mice did not rescue hippocampal DSI. Left panel, summary of time course of DSI recorded from wild-type WT+AAV-CAG-FABP5 MUT ( ), WT+AAV-CAG-EGFP ( ), KO+AAV-CAG-FABP5 MUT ( ), and KO+AAV-CAG-EGFP ( ). Right panel, Sample superimposed IPSC traces collected before and during the DSI. Scale bars: 50 ms, 200 pA (D) Summary of DSI magnitude obtained in WT+AAV-CAG-FABP5 MUT ( : 45.86 ± 5.67%; n = 10 cells; N = 3 mice), WT+AAV-CAG-EGFP ( : 44.28 ± 2.86%; n = 11 cells; N = 3 mice), KO+AAV-CAG-FABP5 MUT ( : 3.19 ± 1.27%; n = 13 cells; N = 3 mice; p = 1.54×10 −11 versus WT+AAV-CAG-FABP5 MUT ), KO+AAV-CAG-EGFP ( : 7.15 ± 1.73%; n = 11 cells; N = 3 mice; p = 1 versus KO+AAV-CAG-FABP5 MUT , p = 1.05×10 −9 versus WT+AAV-CAG-EGFP. (E) Expression of FABP5 MUT in FABP5 KO mice does not affect the depression of IPSC amplitude induced by WIN55,212-2 (10 μM) ( , 34.75 ± 68.28%; n = 7; p = 2.21×10 −4 versus baseline). Inset, Sample IPSCs traces collected before and during the application of WIN55,212-2 (10μM). Scale bars: 25 ms, 50 pA. Data are represented as mean ± SEM. ∗∗∗ p < 0.001, one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni’s multiple comparisons test, or paired sample t-test.
Article Snippet: Hippocampal sections (30 μm) were incubated with the following primary antisera: rabbit anti-FABP5 (BioVendor R&D, RD181060100), goat anti-FABP5 (R&D Systems Inc, #AF1476), mouse anti-NeuN (Millipore, MAB377), rabbit anti-NeuN (Abcam, #AB104225), and mouse anti-s100β (Sigma, #S2532).
