Table 1. Rates of growth cone and docked mitochondrial advance are the same in dmiro wt and heterozygous dmiro B682 axons in vivo.
Genotype | GC rate (µm/h) | Mito rate (µm/h) | Mito per axon |
---|---|---|---|
dmiro+/+ | 20.5 +/- 3.7 (21) | 29.0 +/- 7.5 (32) | 1.6 +/- 0.6 (21) |
dmiro+/- | 19.3 +/- 5.9 (14) | 31.0 +/- 8.1 (38) | 2.4 +/- 0.6 (14) |
combined | 20.0 +/- 3.0 (35) | 30.1 +/- 5.4 (70) |
All values reported as ave +/- 95% CI. Values in parenthesis represent n values. No significant differences were found between growth cone or mitochondria rates of advance (P = 0.707 and 0.732, respectively, by unpaired two tail, t-test). The number of docked mitochondria in the distal 30 µm of the axon was significantly higher in the heterozygous dmiroB682 axons (P = 0.05).
