  • Therefore, in most cases determining whether VGlut1 - or VGlut2-positive neurites belong to intense reelin IR somata was very ambiguous.

  • Positive somata were then counted over all of the images acquired on coverslips from one experiment and normalized to the total number of neurons detected on the corresponding phase-contrast images.

  • Intensities ranging from 100 to 4030 were divided into 110 bins and the number of somata was counted within each bin.

  • Therefore, in most cases determining whether VGlut1 - or VGlut2-positive neurites belong to intense reelin IR somata was very ambiguous.

  • However, the few intense reelin IR somata from which neurites could be tracked with sufficient confidence (n = 12) were mostly VGlut negative

  • (A) Distribution of average intensities of reelin IR measured on somata of neurons treated with cycloheximide (n = 270 neurons) or vehicle (inset, n = 240 neurons) for 9 and 16 hours.

  • (A) Bins of average fluorescent intensities detected in somata of 12 div hippocampal neurons immunostained for reelin (n = 380 neurons).

  • Positive somata were then counted over all of the images acquired on coverslips from one experiment and normalized to the total number of neurons detected on the corresponding phase-contrast images.

  • After background correction, positive ROIs were demarcated only on somata whose integrity was confirmed in phase contrast images.

  • Values are mean percentage±sem of the total number of neuronal somata.
