Figure 4. Nociceptor-specific knockdown of Gαq and norpA does not cause changes in mdIV neuron dendrite length or branch number.

Figure 4

(A, B, C) Confocal micrographs displaying the dendritic arborization of ddaC mdIV neurons expressing mCD8::GFP and Gαq or norpA RNAi. (D) The total numbers of dendrite branches in ddaC dendrites with Gαq or norpA knockdown were not significantly different (by Student’s t-test) from those of no-RNAi control ddaC neurons. (E) The total lengths of ddaC dendrites with Gαq or norpA knockdown were not significantly different (by Student’s t-test) from those of no-RNAi control ddaC neurons. Bars indicate mean total dendrite length, while error bars indicate standard error of the mean (n = 6 neurons for each group).
