| Annotation description: | "We found partial overlap of the RIα label with synaptophysin, which labels presynaptic vesicles (fig. (fig.2a).2a). Importantly, RIα was observed to be concentrated in other vicinities of the presynapse as well. In the postsynaptic region, RIα immunoreactivity showed partial overlap with the mitochondrial marker (lipoic acid); overlap with mitochondria in muscle fibers was also observed (fig. (fig.2b).2b). In muscle, labeling of the I-band by anti RIα was dominant. The I-band contains actin and is where mitochondria are located, but has no myosin." |
