Figure(s):Figure 3
Annotation description:Figure 3e-j: immunofluorescence imaging of FGF7 in cultured hippocampal neurons showed co-localization with inhibitory postsynapse marker protein Gephyrin (GPHN). Same results for both overexpressed FGF7-DsRed and endogenous FGF7. FGF7 did not colocalize with excitatory synapse marker proteins.
