Additional literature: | Fig.6: "NOS1AP increases processes outgrowth and influences Rac activity" - "For this purpose, we overexpressed either YFP or YFP-NOS1AP in dissociated hippocampal neurons that had been cultured for 13 DIV (Fig. 6A,B). Twenty-four hours after transfection, we detected a 30% increase in the number of dendritic protrusions in the YFP-NOS1AP-transfected neurons (Fig. 6E)." @ PMID:20357130 |
