Western blot analysis for SgIGSF in olfactory mucosa after olfactory nerve transection. (A) Protein samples were electrophoresed, blotted and stained with anti-SgIGSF and anti-α-tubulin antibodies. A representative result is shown. Lanes represent cerebrum (lane 1) and lung (2) from the control mouse, and olfactory musosa from mice 0 day (3), 4 days (4), 7 days (5), 11 days (6), 15 days (7) and 35 days (8) after the transection. Molecular weights (kDa) are indicated. (B) Relative intensity of SgIGSF band against α-tubulin at 0 day is set as 1 and the corresponding values after transection are plotted. Each point represents mean±SD of 3 samples. * Significantly different from 0 day value (P<0.05).
