Fig. 6. Phosphorylation of cPLA2
at Ser505. (A) Immunocytochemistry with antibody to cPLA2
phosphorylated at Ser505 and to calbindin D. Treatment with 200 nM PMA for 20 minutes triggered marked phosphorylation of cPLA2
, whereas stimulation with glutamate-receptor agonists alone (100 µM glutamate or 30 µM AMPA for 3 minutes) had little effect. Pre-treatment with 10 µM U0126 for 30 minutes completely blocked the phosphorylation of cPLA2
that was induced by the combination of PMA and AMPA. Scale bar: 10 µm. (B) Quantification of experiments. The average fluorescence intensity of phosphorylated cPLA2
in proximal dendrites after treatment with glutamate-receptor agonists and/or PMA was calculated. The values are means ± s.e.m. (n=13-30 for each condition). ***P<0.001.
