Provider: Invitrogen Antibodies
Product name: MAP2 Monoclonal Antibody (M13)
Antibody type: Monoclonal
Antigen: Other
Description: This antibody reacts with a 300 kD cytoskeletal protein (MAP2A and MAP2B) primarily expressed in the somatodendritic domain of the neuron but is also found in the glia. Reactivity is not affected by phospohorylation state of MAP2. Abnormal expression of MAP2 may cause cytoskeletal abnormalities and impair signal transduction in dendrites. This antibody is suitable for immunohistochemical staining of alcohol-fixed paraffin embedded or frozen tissue sections.
Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat
Host: Mouse
Isotype: IgG
Antibody clone number: M13
Vial size: 100 µg
Concentration: 0.5 mg/mL
Storage: -20°C

Experimental details: Figure 1 Marker expression of NTERA2 (NT2) cells and ATRA differentiated NTERA2 neurons (NT2N). NT2 cells (A-C) co-express GFAP and SSEA3 with GFAP staining confined to the nucleus (A). NT2 cells also co-express GFAP and beta-tubulin III (BT3) which are both mainly confined to the nucleus (B). Nestin with GFAP are co-localized in NT2 cells (C). NT2N assembled themselves into cell clusters which co-expressed GFAP and BT3 found within the cytoplasm and neurites (D). Arrow heads point to cells that appear as radial glia cells which only display GFAP staining (D). NT2N also express neural markers TAU and MAP2 with MAP2 confined to dendrites (tapering morphology shown by arrow heads) and TAU not displaying restriction to axons. In merge panel insert shows close-up view of neurite (E). Synapsin 1 staining is seen as punctate along neurite projections co-expressing BT3 (F).

Experimental details: FIGURE 1 Morphology of iPSC/NSC-derived neurons. Neurite networks of healthy donor control (Ct1 and Ct2) and patient (Pt1 and Pt2) neurons were revealed by phase contrast imaging (A) and immunofluorescence imaging of cells stained with antibodies to cytoskeletal proteins beta-3-Tubulin (B) and MAP2 (C) . The length (D) , number (E) and thickness (F) of neurites were measured from phase contrast images and quantified. There were no significant differences in either the number or the length of neurites between control or patient-cells. Specifically, the average neurite length (D) of different cells was: Ct1, 93.2 +- 8.4 mum; Ct2, 94.6 +- 11.6 mum; Pt1, 96.1 +- 10.1 mum; and Pt2, 86.2 +- 7.0 mum ( p = 0.882; n = 5).

Experimental details: FIGURE 5 (A) Calcium imaging data. Top panels show raw traces of spontaneous calcium transients recorded from neurons of control donors and patients. Bottom bar graphs are quantitative data of the mean peak amplitudes and spiking frequency of calcium transients. Our data show that neurons from patients (Pt1 and Pt2) exhibited significant changes in either the amplitude or the frequency of calcium transients with the inability to return to basal levels compared to their matched donor controls (Ct1 and Ct2). Arrows indicate basal levels between calcium transcients. (B) Adhesion activity of neurons. Control (Ct1 and Ct2) and patient-derived (Pt1 and Pt2) neurons (6-days after differentiation from NSC) were plated onto Geltrex coated 8-well glass slide Chamber and incubated at 37degC for 30 min, the dishes were flipped to remove non-adherent cells. The adherent neurons were stained with an antibody specific to MAP2 and DAPI and MAP2-expressing cells were counted. Percentage of adherent (flipped) cells was calculated based on un-flipped cells.

Experimental details: Fig 2 CUL9 KO clones differentiate to hNPCs and early born cortical neurons. ( A ) Protocol for neuronal differentiation of hPSCs. Diagram above in vitro differentiation roughly correlates to in vivo corticogenesis with differentiation protocol. Exact cell population at stages of differentiation often varies between differentiations.

Western blot analysis of lysates obtained from WT neurons differentiated for ten days and 135 days show gradual increase in CUL9 protein levels compared to WT hPSCs. APC7 levels increase during initial neuronal induction, and then remain relatively stable throughout maturation. n = 3. ( C ) CUL9 mRNA levels increase over the course of cortical differentiation. RNA isolated from iPSCs, D7 cortical differentiation, and D25 cortical differentiation were analyzed by RT-qPCR. Error bars +/- SD. iPSC and D7 n = 2. D25 n = 3.

The LC3-II:I ratio decreased from control to high glucose (1.000 +- 0.208 AU to 0.464 +- 0.092 AU), an effect that appeared unaffected when treated with PGRN alongside high glucose (0.474 +- 0.076 AU).
