Viral mediated expression of apoE4 in apoE4-TR mice shifts apoE particles to smaller sizes. Neonatal P2 apoE4-TR mice were injected with AAV viruses and brains were harvested as in Figure 2. (A) ApoE-associated particles in the TBS fractions of cortical brain tissues were analyzed by native gel electrophoresis. ApoE particle-immunoreactivity was detected at approximately between 242 kDa and 1048 kDa, and defined as three categories of particle sizes: Large particles (>720 kDa); Medium particles (480–720 kDa) and Small particles (<480 kDa). Cortical lysates from age-matched Apoe knockout (KO) mice was used as a negative control for apoE immunoreactivity. (B) The percentages of apoE particles in different size categories were quantified. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 3-5). *,p < 0.05; **,p < 0.01; ***,p < 0.001.
