doi: 10.1093/hmg/ddx088

Figure Lengend Snippet: Diet-induced high Hcy brain level effects on synaptic integrity and neuroinflammation are rescued by genetic absence of ALOX5. (A) Representative western blot analyses of post-synaptic density protein 95 (PSD-95), synaptophysin (SYP), microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), GFAP and CD45 in brain cortex homogenates from wild type mice receiving regular diet (WT); wild type mice receiving folate and B vitamin deficient diet (WT + Diet); 5LOKO mice receiving regular diet (5LOKO); and 5LOKO mice receiving the Diet (5LOKO + Diet). (B) Densitometric analyses of the immunoreactivities to the antibodies shown in the previous panel (*P < 0.05). Values represent mean ± S.E.M. (n = 5 WT-control; n = 5 WT + Diet; n = 5 5LOKO-control; n = 5 5LOKO + Diet).

Article Snippet: After three washings with T-TBS (pH7.4), membranes were incubated with IRDye 800CW-labeled secondary antibodies (LI-COR Bioscience, Lincoln, NE) at RT for 1 h. Signals were developed with Odyssey Infrared Imaging Systems (LI-COR Bioscience). β-Actin was always used as internal loading control. table ft1 table-wrap mode="anchored" t5 caption a7 Antibody Immunogen Host Dilution Source Catalog number Tau-1 Bovine microtubule associated protein Mouse 1:200 Cell signaling 4019 AT-180 Peptide containing phospho-T231/S235 Mouse 1:200 Thermo P10636 AT-270 Peptide containing phospho-T181 Mouse 1:300 Thermo MN1050 PHF-13 Peptide containing phospho-Ser396 Mouse 1:300 Cell signaling 9632 PHF-1 Peptide containing phosphor-Ser396/S404 Mouse 1:200 Dr Davies P.
