doi: 10.1021/pr5003593

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 1. N40K occurrence is independent of the postmortem interval and correlates with the decrease of the U1-70K level in AD. (A) Identification of N40K in the detergent insoluble fraction of AD brain by 1D SDS gel and LC−MS/MS. Ctl: control case. (B) Validation of N40K only in AD (case 8 in Supporting Information Table S1) by Western blotting. (C) No statistically significant difference in postmortem intervals between the N40K negative and positive cases. (D) Western blotting to show reduced U1-70K level in the total homogenate in N40K positive cases. The numbers above the gel indicate the corresponding case numbers in Supporting Information Table S1. (E) Quantitation of the Western blotting intensity in panel D to indicate an inverse correlation of U1-70K in total homogenate with insoluble N40K. Relative intensities of U1-70K and N40K were normalized by setting the maximal values to 100, respectively.

(D) Quantitative analysis by counting degenerating neurons. Error bars represent standard errors of mean (SEM) of analyzed neurons in duplicated plates of the same batch of neuronal culture. The experiments were repeated three times with different batches of culture, all showing similar results. The asterisks indicate p < 0.05 by the ANOVA and Tukey range test. (E) The MTT assay of neuronal viability upon Lentiviral N40K transfection. Error bars represent SEM. The double asterisks indicate p < 0.01 by Student’s t-test.
