Representative intensity of Human αsyn immunostaining (a) Photomicrographs representative of the variability of expression observed in the different group of animals at 1, 3 and 6 months of age (b) Level of expression of the transgene was assessed by western blot in AAV-αsyn at 3 months of age and compared to transgenic mice overexpressing αsyn under Thy1 promoter (line 61) at the same age. Antibody recognizing human and mouse αsyn was used (clone 42). (c) Quantification of the western blot shows αsyn level increase of 2.93 ± 0.33 fold in the AAV-αsyn animals and 3.23 ± 0.12 fold in the line 61. .The data are expressed as the amount of total level of αsyn normalized to actin (*, p < 0.05) and are from 3 repeated experiments.
