SOC channel proteins in mouse cortical neurons. (A) Real time PCR (RT-PCR) of DNA complementary from primary cortical neurons obtained from E-15 wild-type mouse embryo with Orai 1–3, Stim 1, 2 and Trpc 1–7 specific primers. The experiment was repeated four times with similar results. (B) Western Blot analysis of ORAI 1, ORAI 2, STIM 2, TRPC 1 and TRPC 4 levels. Protein extracts were obtained from SH-SY5Y cells and 8–9 day in vitro (DIV) cortical neurons. Primary antibodies used were α-Orai1, α-Orai2, α-Trpc1, α-Trpc4, α-Stim2 and α -β Actin as a control.
