doi: 10.1016/j.btre.2026.e00946

Figure Lengend Snippet: Functional neutralization of NGF binding to the TrkA receptor and SP-induced mast cell degranulation by antibodies elicited by rNGFSP in dogs. A) Inhibition of NGF–TrkA binding. Neutralization of NGF binding to the TrkA receptor was assessed by ELISA. Biotinylated NGF was incubated with TrkA in the presence of pooled sera from non-immunized dogs at day 0 (D0), sera from rNGFSP-immunized dogs at day 56 (D56), or a commercial monoclonal anti-NGF antibody (0.5 µg/mL). NGF alone served as a positive control. Sera were diluted 1:10 prior to the assay.. * p < 0.05. B) Inhibition of SP-induced mast cell degranulation. Flow cytometry analysis of mast cells stimulated with SP conjugated to BSA in the presence of IgG from non-immunized (D0) or immunized (D56) dogs. Representative plots show avidin–FITC-positive degranulating cells. The percentage of degranulating mast cells from replicate experiments is summarized on the right. All data are expressed as mean ± SEM, with * p < 0.05 compared to Day 0, determined by two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. C) Confocal microscopy of mast cell degranulation. Mast cells were stained with avidin–FITC (green) and DAPI (blue). SP or the positive control compound 48/80 (10 µM) induced granule release, whereas IgG from immunized dogs (D56) reduced SP-induced degranulation. Scale bar: 10 µm.

Article Title: Accumulation of prosaposin and progranulin around the subfornical organ induces polydipsia in SAP-D-deficient mice

doi: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2025.102388

Figure Lengend Snippet: c-Fos expression was induced in the SFO of SAP-D −/− mice without dehydration. a) Expression levels of c-Fos , Gpr37 , and Cd68 in the SFO and fornix were quantified via RT-qPCR. For RNA extraction, tissue samples were microdissected from the brains of 6-month-old female WT mice (n = 10) and SAP-D −/− mice (n = 6) under a stereomicroscope. After cDNA synthesis, RT-qPCR was performed, and the data were normalized to Gapdh expression. A significant increase in Cd68 expression was observed in SAP-D −/− mice, consistent with immunostaining results, confirming accurate sampling of the SFO and surrounding fornix. The results of Student's t-tests for each panel are as follows: left panel, p = 0.0046, Cohen's d = 1.74 (95 % CI: 0.0027, 0.0122); center panel, p = 0.0352, Cohen's d = 1.20 (95 % CI: 0.00091, 0.02191); and right panel, p = 0.0007, Cohen's d = 2.41 (95 % CI: 0.0079, 0.0233). b) Immunofluorescent staining of c-Fos (green) in the SFO of 10-month-old female WT and SAP-D −/− mice.
