Annotation description: | Figure 4-7: immunogold EM of rat striatum tissue showed Striatin (STRN) was localized to dendrites, dendritic spines and (to a lesser extend) PSD. Authors comment on non-postsynaptic localization: "In agreement with previous observations by Castets et al.,[PMID:8769426] axonal processes and terminals, as well as myelinated fibres bundles, were devoid of striatin immunolabelling. So were glial cells, pericytes and endothelial capillary cells." |
