mTBI increases exocyst complex assembly and interaction between Exo70 and GluN2B in the PSD fraction. Two-month-old male mice were subjected to mTBI and hippocampal PSD/nonPSD fractions were obtained. 50 and 300 µg of PSD (a) and nonPSD (c) protein samples, respectively, were immunoprecipitated using a specific Exo70 polyclonal antibody. Beads were recovered by brief centrifugation. Samples were resolved in 6% SDS-PAGE and transferred to PVDF membranes. Signal intensity was normalized with Exo70 band intensity. Both hippocampi of each mouse were used. Membranes were stripped and tested again with the indicated antibodies. b, d GluN2A, GluN2B, GluR1, GluR2, Sec6, and Sec10 densitometric analysis from PSD and nonPSD immunoprecipitations. The analysis shows the assembly level of the exocyst complex and Exo70-GluN2B increased interaction after mTBI. Values represent means ± SEM, n = 3 mice per experimental group. Statistical differences were determined by an unpaired t-test comparing Sham and mTBI. *p < 0.05
