Figure 3From: The Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi induces inflammation and apoptosis in cells from dorsal root ganglia Expression of MBP, CNPase and p75NTR in HSC cultures. (A) shows HSC cultures staining with MBP (red) but not CD-90. (B) shows the expression of the myelinating marker CNPase (red) and the Schwann cell marker p75NTR (green) in HSC cultures. A representative image of HSC cultures stained with isotype control for mouse IgG1 followed by goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 568 is shown in (C). The nuclei of cells appear blue in A, B and C due to staining with nuclear stain TOPRO3. CNPase, 2′,3′-cyclic nucleotide 3′-phosphodiesterase; HSC, human Schwann cell; MBP, myelin basic protein.Back to article page
