Objective To investigate the expression of E3B1 gene in cultured neurons and its significance in axon growth. Methods The mRNA levels of E3B1 were measured by RT-PCR and the protein level by Western blot analysis. The expression of type Ⅲ β-microtubulin of E3B1 was detected by immunocytochemistry. Results Compared with those in the normal cultured neurons
the expression of type Ⅲ β-microtubulin was lower in the neurons with axonal growth restricted (P0.01)
and their mRNA and protein levels of E3B1 were obviously higher (P0.01). Conclusion The expression changes of E3B1 gene has a close relation with neurite outgrowth.
