SynaptoGreen™ C4 is an oxonol dye that helps in the rapid detection of an antibiotic′s effect on bacterial viability. It is a fluorescent dye that is used in optical imaging studies to determine synaptic activity by staining synaptic vesicles at the nerve terminal or the neuromuscular junction. It is equivalent to FM1-43.
Application
SynaptoGreen™ C4 has been used to label cultured neurons grown on EM grids for fluorescent labeling, live light microscopy and imaging studies.
Biochem/physiol Actions
A fluorescent nerve terminal dye suitable for monitoring synaptic activity at synapses and at neuromuscular junctions.
Phosphatidic acid (PA) is an important intermediate in membrane lipid metabolism that acts as a key component of signaling networks, regulating the spatio-temporal dynamics of the endomembrane system and the cytoskeleton. Using tobacco pollen tubes as a model, we addressed
Absence of dystrophin makes skeletal muscle more susceptible to injury, resulting in breaches of the plasma membrane and chronic inflammation in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Current management by glucocorticoids has unclear molecular benefits and harsh side effects. It is uncertain
Oral mechanoreception is implicated in fundamental functions including speech, food intake and swallowing; yet, the neuroanatomical substrates that encode mechanical stimuli are not well understood. Tactile perception is initiated by intricate mechanosensitive machinery involving dedicated cells and neurons. This signal
We investigated the phylogenetic diversity, localisation and metabolism of an uncultured bacterial clade, Termite Group 2 (TG2), or ZB3, in the termite gut, which belongs to the candidate phylum 'Margulisbacteria'. We performed 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing analysis and detected TG2/ZB3
