Measures of brain proteins
See omics page to request data.
Measures of synaptic loss, pathology, and functionality are determined using ELISA tests performed at the Honer Lab at the University of British Columbia (Vancouver BC, Canada).
Complexin-I (inhibitory) | Complexin-I protein density - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
---|---|
Complexin-II (excitatory) | Complexin-II protein density - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
SNAP-25 | Synaptosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP-25) density - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
Synaptophysin | Synaptophysin protein density - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
Syntaxin-1 | Synatxin-1 protein density - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
VAMP | Vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP) density - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
Mean complexin density | Mean complexin density - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
Mean SNARE protein density | Mean SNARE protein density - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
Mean SNARE protein-protein interactions | Mean SNARE protein-protein interactions - Average of 6 regions (MAP only) |
Expression data The abundance of endogenous peptides is quantified as a ratio to spiked-in synthetic peptides containing stable heavy isotopes and log2 transformed. During normalization, the "light/heavy" log2-ratios for each sample are shifted such that the median is set to zero.
Signal-to-noise assessment After homogenization, small aliquots from each of the samples are pooled together and scattered throughout the study (8 samples per 96-well plate) to help capture variance that is due to sample preparation steps (except homogenization) and instrumental measurements. The standard deviation across controls indicates precision of the measurement. The signal-to-noise ratio is calculated as the ratio of variance across human subject samples vs. pooled controls. If the variance across the controls is equal to or higher than that across the human subject samples, the peptide is discarded from further consideration.
