Annotation description: | Fig.7: "Ribosomes are present in CB1-expressing interneuron axons and terminals" - "In a complementary set of experiments, we immunolabeled ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6), which is an integral component of the eukaryotic 40S ribosomal subunit and an effector of mTOR signaling. rpS6 molecules were also readily visualized with STORM imaging inside CB1-expressing axon terminals (Figure 7C, Figure S5C). The densities of 5.8S rRNA (Figure 7D) and rpS6 protein (Figure 7E) puncta were significantly higher (by ~90%) in axon terminals compared to the corresponding background signal measured from CA1 pyramidal cell nuclei. " - "Taken together, these findings provide molecular and anatomical evidence for the presence of presynaptic ribosomes inside CB1-expressing interneuron terminals." |
