Fig. 2: Only eEF1A2 OE significantly increases protein synthesis.

Representative images of puromycin, GFP (viruses), and NeuN staining at the layer V of the right sensorimotor cortex of injured control mice (AAV-GFP injection) (A–A””); injured eEF1A1-overexpressing (OE) mice (B–B””); injured eEF1A2-OE mice (C–C””); injured eEF1As-OE mice (D–D””); and injured PTEN cKO mice serving as a positive control (E–E”). F Quantification of puromycin immunoreactivity. Scale bars: 50 μm. 4 mice per each genetic condition; 50 cells quantified per mouse. Stats: One-way ANOVA with Kruskal–Wallis Test. Bars show mean ± SEM. *p = 0.0239, **p = 0.0011.
