Annotation description:Figure 4. Effects of IL-1RAcP isoforms on synapse formation. A, Effects of FLAG-IL-1RAcP and FLAG-IL-1RAcPb on the
dendritic protrusions of cultured cortical neurons and the accumulation of Bassoon signals along dendrites.

The figure shows the staining with ani-FLAG antibodiees of neurons trasnfected with FLAG-IL-1RAcP and FLAG-IL-1RAcPb cDNAs.

Literal:
"We then examined the effects of expression of IL-1RAcP and IL-1RAcPb in cultured cortical neurons on synapse formation. Transfection of cultured cortical neurons at DIV 12 with the expression vector for FLAG-IL-1RAcP increased punctate immunostaining signals for Bassoon but exerted little effect on dendritic protrusions (Fig. 4). On the other hand, transfection of FLAG-IL-1RAcPb stimulated both the accumulation of Bassoon signals along the dendrites and formation of dendritic protrusions (Fig. 4). These results suggest that both IL-1RAcP and IL-1RAcPb have the ability to induce presynaptic differentiation, while the spinogenic activity is specific for IL-1RAcPb."

28/01/2021 Dnyanada: The paper demonstrates localisation of FLAG-IL-1RAcP in dendritic protrusions, and does not provide any "synaptic resolution". It also shows that IL-1RAcP plays a role in synapse formation. Based on this, the term "synapse" was chosen.
