Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 4 Expression of betaine regulating factors in PTSM environment. Region-specific expression of A. CHDH (red) and B. BGT1 (red) in different segments of the spinal cord of PTSM injured animals (n = 3) showing PTSM rostral, PTSM injury, PTSM caudal, compared to laminectomy-only control animals (n = 3), co-stained with GFAP, astrocyte marker (green). In all IHC image panels DAPI (blue), scale bar = 80 µm, and * = syrinx
Article Snippet: Staining was performed for target proteins/channels/ enzymes such as BGT1 (betaine-GABA transporter 1) (Anti-BGT1 (SLC6A12) antibody, Alomone Laboratories, Israel), CHDH (choline dehydrogenase) (sc393885, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, TX, USA), AQP1 (sc-25287, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, TX, USA), AQP4 (sc-32739, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, TX, USA), and KCC4 (potassium-chloride cotransporter 4) (PA5-59666, ThermoFisher, MA, USA) using primary and secondary antibodies.
Techniques: Expressing, Control, Staining, Marker
