Figure 5. Age-dependent increase of CXCR4 in BDNF+/− mice.

Figure 5

Cortical CXCR4 mRNA levels were measured in 7-day-old pups, 6 and 18-month-old BDNF+/− mice and WT littermates. RNA extraction and RT-PCR was carried out as described in Experimental Procedures. A. Representative gels showing CXCR4 and RPL19 cDNAs from the cortex of 7-day old and 6-month old mice. B. Semi-quantitative analysis of CXCR4 mRNA was carried out by Quantity One 1-D analysis. Data, expressed as Intensity of cDNA bands, are the mean ± SEM of five independent samples. *p<.005 vs WT.
