Table 3.

Active serum fraction supports survival of neurons from multiple brain regions

Brain region Neurons/well (mean ± SD)
Late ABx fraction Control
Cerebral cortex 212  ± 25** 39  ± 2
Hippocampus 214  ± 20** 68  ± 10
Substantia nigra 168  ± 30** 31  ± 6
Striatum 223  ± 29** 12  ± 3

Cells from the indicated regions of E15 rat brain were cultured as described in Materials and Methods, with either the active ABx fraction (0.3 μg/ml) or 2 μg/ml extra BSA (control) added at 3 DIV. Viable neurons were counted at 6 DIV. Values represent the mean ± SEM of four culture wells. **Indicates significant difference from control at p < 0.001 (Bonferroni post-test comparing paired groups).
