Figure Lengend Snippet: mGluR2-GST neutralized ERA-eGFP infection of HEK293 cells (A), SK cells (B), N2a cells (C), and mPN cells (D), and neutralized VSV∆G-ERAG-eGFP infection of HEK293 cells (E) but failed to neutralize VSV-eGFP infection of HEK293 cells (F). A one-way ANOVA was used for the statistical analysis. *, p <0.05. **, p <0.01. ***, p <0.001.

Techniques: Infection

mGluR2-GST neutralized the infectivity of GX/09 street virus and protected mice from lethal virus challenges via intramuscular (A) or intracerebral (B) inoculation. The Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test was used to analyze the statistical difference between the survival rates of the challenged mice. *, p <0.05. **, p <0.01.

Flow cytometry detected cell surface mGluR2 on RABV ERA-infected HEK293 cells (ERA), which was compared to uninfected HEK293 cells by staining with anti-mGluR2 monoclonal antibody (mGluR2) or isotype antibody control (IgG2a) at 4°C or 37°C (A). The flow cytometry results were analyzed with a one-way ANOVA (B). *, p <0.05. **, p <0.01.

N2a Cells were stained by using the Tyramide Signal Amplification immunofluorescent method. Absence of co-localization of tubulin (green), Rab7 (red), and Tomm20 (purple) served as a negative control for co-localization (A and B). Significant co-localization of the mitochondrial marker AIF (green) and Tomm20 (red) served as a positive control for co-localization (C and D). N2a cells infected with ERA-N-mCherry for 20 minutes at 37°C were used to perform immunofluorescence staining for RABV antigen (red), mGluR2 (green), Rab5 or Rab7 (purple), and the cell nuclei (blue). Co-localization of the RABV-mGluR2 complex with Rab5 (E, F) or Rab7 (H, I) was observed and counted. The images, comprising three single fluorescence channels (G, J), represent amplified random co-localization spots in the merged image within the small white box (G from E, F from J). The 3D-rendered images were generated by using Imaris software (G, J) and the co-localization of the RABV-mGluR2 complex with Rab5 (G) or Rab7 (J) from the three single fluorescence channels is indicated with the white arrowhead.
