Brain homing of pEVs and their internalization by neuronal cells in the Tg(huc:EGFP) zebrafish. (a) Live confocal images (maximum projection) at 1 hpi and 24 hpi of the head of Tg(huc:EGFP) larvae (20× and 40×) after injection of 4.5 nL of PBS or pEVs (1 1010 pEVs/mL) from either HeC or mAD patients (red, indicated by arrows). Neurons are in green and the nucleus in blue. (b) Three-dimensional reconstruction on Imaris software of the head of the zebrafish 1 and 24 hpi of PKH-pEVs from HeC (20×) and mAD (40×) patients. Neuronal cells are in green, PKH-pEVs are in red, and colocalization areas are in white. (c) The percentage of neurons engulfing PKH-pEVs was quantified by Zen 2.6 software and compared by ordinary one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's multiple comparisons test. |
