PV expression affected “wound closure” capacity as assessed by a scratch wound assay using undifferentiated C-, GFP- and PV-CG4 cells (A) and the same differentiated CG4 cell lines (B). The wound closure capacity was evaluated by calculating the AUC of the relative wound density plotted over time, which was normalized to the control (C-CG4 cells) and averaged per condition. In the undifferentiated OPC state PV-CG4 cells displayed slightly decreased AUC values (relative wound density over time) when compared to C-CG4 cells (C), suggesting a reduced wound closure capacity in PV-overexpressing CG4 cells in the undifferentiated state. Similar differences were also present in CG4 cells in the differentiated state (E). Single-cell tracking from video sequences revealed no significant differences in the cell velocity (µm/min) of CG4 cells, in both the undifferentiated OPC-like (D) and differentiated OLG-like states (F). Error bars represent SEM (ns: not significant; p value > 0.05, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001).
