Fig. 6. Proteosome inhibition reduces neurite growth from nodose neurons. P0 nodose
neurons were incubated in medium containing 10 ng/ml BDNF and either the
proteosomal degradation inhibitor ALLN at a concentration of 10 µmol/l or
vehicle control. Vehicle-treated neurons were also grown without BDNF. (A)
Percent survival after 48 hours incubation. (B) Total neurite length after 24
hours incubation. (C) Number of branching points in neurite arbors after 24
hours incubation. (D) Sholl analysis of neurite arbor morphology after 24
hours incubation. (E) Photomicrograph of a typical ßIII tubulin-stained,
vehicle-treated neuron grown for 24 hours with BDNF. (F) Photomicrograph of a
typical ßIII tubulin-stained, ALLN-treated neuron grown for 24 hours with
BDNF. Statistical comparisons shown are with respect to the control
transfected neurons, *P<0.05, **P<0.001. Scale bars:
50 µm.
