doi: 10.7554/eLife.70514
Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Analysis of cell-specific genes in HA-pulldown/input samples (log2) from RNA sequencing demonstrates enrichment for astrocyte genes and depletion of other cells in all samples (N = 3 at postnatal day [P]7, 4 at P14, 5 at P28, 3 at P120; for statistical comparisons, 3xP120 samples published in were added to increase the power of the analysis). ( B–D ) Immunostaining for the HA tag and cell-specific markers to determine cell-type expression of tagged ribosomes in P28 visual cortex. ( D ) Representative images, left panels: cell marker; middle panels: HA; right panels: merge with DAPI to mark nuclei. ( B, C ) Quantification of ( D ). ( B ) Quantification of colocalization of HA with each cell-specific marker, expressed as % of marker + cells, demonstrates that majority of HA+ cells are astrocytes. ( C ) Quantification of number of astrocytes (s100β+) that are also HA+ demonstrates that majority of astrocytes express HA-tagged ribosomes. N = 4 mice S100β, NEUN, IBA1; 3 mice MOG; 2 mice NG2. Bar graphs mean ± s.e.m. Scale bars = 20 µm. ( E ) Heatmaps of top 20 most astrocyte-enriched genes (highest astro/IN ratio; FPKM > 100) at each time point, as well as those in the top 20 at all time points, represented as fold change (FC) of astrocyte/input (log2). ( F ) Venn diagram showing overlap in astrocyte-enriched genes at each age. ( G ) Gene Ontology (GO) terms analysis with String db of Biological Process (BP) in astrocyte-enriched genes at each time point. Venn diagram showing overlap in GO terms at each age.
