(F) Immunofluorescence analysis of the old APPPS1 slice in co-culture (14 DIV) treated with cytochalasin D (CytoD) and vehicle control (Ctr) and immunostained with M3.2 (green) and CD68 (red). Inhibition of phagocytosis by CytoD blocks amyloid plaque clearance. Scale bar: 50 µm.(G) Quantitative analysis of core-only plaques in the old APPPS1 slice in co-culture (14 DIV) treated with CytoD and Ctr reveals a decreased number of core-only plaques upon CytoD treatment. The values are expressed as percentages of core-only plaques from the total number of amyloid plaques. The values represent mean ± SEM from 3 independent experiments, including total of 6 independent slice culture dishes (***P < 0.001).
