Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 2 Riluzole treatment restores hippocampal BDNF in the irradiated hippocampus. 10–12 weeks old WT male mice received cranial radiation therapy (RT) followed by riluzole (RZ) treatment (13 mg/kg) in drinking water for 6–7 weeks. An ELISA-based quantification of BDNF from the micro-dissected hippocampus showed RT-induced reductions in the RT + Vehicle group. Importantly, RZ treatment in the cranially irradiated mice showed significant restoration of BDNF levels. Data are presented as mean ± SEM (N = 6–10 mice per group). P values were derived from two-way ANOVA and Bonferroni’s multiple comparisons test

Article Snippet: BDNF levels were quantified using a commercially available ELISA kit (E-EL-M0203, Elabscience Biotechnology) and uncoated ELISA plates (Nunc MaxiSorp, Biolegend).

(a,b) Snapshots of the interaction between TRKB and cholesterol at the TMR (see supplement video) indicating that cholesterol (orange) interacts with the OH- group (red) in Y433 (cyan) of the TRKB.TMR (green). The TRKB.TMR helix is shown in the cartoon, the lipids and Y433 sidechain in van der Waals representations. (c) Molecular dynamics simulations show that cholesterol predominantly resides close to the C-alpha atom of Y433 but not C-alpha atom of R427, highlighting the significance of the aromatic Y in the TRKB CARC domain.
