Annotation description: | Fig.3: "NDR1/2's role on dendritic spine and excitatory postsynaptic development" - "Expression of dominant negative NDR1 (NDR1-KD or NDR1-AA) caused a robust increase of filopodia and atypical protrusion density together with a reduction in mushroom spine density (Figure 3A-C), indicating that NDR1 function is necessary for mushroom spine formation. In contrast, NDR1-CA drastically reduced the total dendritic protrusion density, as a result of significant reduction in mushroom spines, filopodia and stubby spines (Figure 3A-C). " - "Similar to the dominant negative effects of NDR1 mutants, NDR1siRNA + NDR2siRNA also resulted in increased filopodia and atypical protrusions and decreased mushroom spine densities, which was rescued by co-expression of siRNA resistant NDR1 (NDR1*) (Figure 3A & D)" Fig.4: "In vivo analysis of NDR1 mutants and siRNA by in utero electroporation" - " We found that NDR1-KD and NDR1siRNA + NDR2siRNA decreased dendritic spine head diameter (Figure 4G), suggesting that NDR1/2 is required for dendritic spine development in vivo" |
