Changes of surface GluR2 subunit expression in cultured hippocampal neurons post stretch injury.

<p>A. Representative images showing that surface expression of membrane GluR2 subunits was reduced after injury, but inhibition of PTEN activity by bpv increases the surface expression of GluR2 subunits. Bar graph showing expression of GluR2 subunits in the normal (control) , injury and injury + bpv treatment group (*p<0.05). Scale bar = 47.62 µm. B. Representative images of Western blot showing the total expression of whole GluR2 subunits in normal, injury and bpv groups. β-actin was used as a loading control. (n = 3 for each group; Compared with normal group: *p<0.05).
