Np95 is expressed abundantly in the brain at midgestation, when a large number of NS/PCs exist. (A) Confirmation of antibody reactivity to mouse Np95. HEK293T cells were transfected with FLAG-tagged Np95 expression plasmid and immunoblotted with anti-FLAG, -Np95 and -UHRF1 antibodies. (B) Western blot analysis of mouse whole brain at various stages of development, from E11 to postnatal day 7 (P7) and in 8-week-old adults, using anti-DNMT1, -Np95 and -actin antibodies. Np95 and DNMT1 bands were strongest in E11 brains. (C) Representative immunofluorescence images for Np95, Ki67 and Sox2 in E14 mouse forebrain sections. Scale bar: 250 μm. (D) Confocal immunofluorescence images for Np95, Ki67 and Sox2 in E14 mouse forebrain sections. Scale bars: 10 μm. (E–G) Representative immunofluorescence images of E14 mouse forebrain sections. Immunostaining of Np95 (red), Nestin (cyan) and Ki67 (E), DCX (F) or MAP2ab (G) (green). The insets in Merge images show Hoechst staining. Np95 expression was observed only in Ki67+ or Nestin+ proliferating NS/PCs. Scale bars: 100 μm. VZ: ventricular zone; SVZ: subventricular zone; IZ: intermediate zone; CP: cortical plate.
