Figure 3. — GABA_AR clusters are confined to the postsynaptic membrane. gSTED micrographs of cultured hippocampal (A) or MSNs (C) transfected with α₂δ-2 and mCherry or mCherry only (control; 20–30 DIV). Transfected neurons (red, detected in confocal mode) were immunolabeled for the GABA_AR (green, detected in gSTED mode). In all conditions, postsynaptic GABA_AR clusters are closely opposed to mCherry-positive presynaptic boutons. B, 3D model showing that the GABA_AR staining pattern depends on the orientation of the imaged synapse, which applies both for hippocampal as well as MSNs. Scale bar, 1 μm.
