Figure Lengend Snippet: Gene expression patterns and differential analysis in neuron cells across Braak stages and disease states. ( A , C , E ) Violin plots depicting the significant differences in gene expression levels of KCNQ2, RPH3A, SV2A and TMEM59L between Braak stages 0 and 2, Braak stages 0 and 6, and Braak stages 2 and 6 (entorhinal cortex and superior frontal gyrus) as well as between AD and control samples (hippocampus) among excitatory and inhibitory neurons. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ****p < 0.0001. ( B , D , F ) Corresponding gene expression patterns of 4 selected genes plotted on the UMAP coordinates in entorhinal cortex, superior frontal gyrus and hippocampus, respectively. These genes exhibit cell-type specificity in excitatory and inhibitory neurons. The color intensity corresponds to the expression level, with a gradient scale ranging from low (blue) to high (red) expression.
Article Snippet: After blocking and washing, the membranes were probed with primary antibody specifically against KCNQ2 (Cell Signaling Technology, #14752), RPH3A (Proteintech, #11396-1-AP), SV2A (Abcam, ab254351) at 4 °C overnight.
