The Astrocytic S100B Protein with Its Receptor RAGE Is Aberrantly Expressed in SOD1G93A Models, and Its Inhibition Decreases the Expression of Proinflammatory Genes

S100B and RAGE colocalization in the lumbar spinal cord from SOD1G93A rats. Double immunofluorescence was performed with anti-S100B (green) and anti-RAGE (red) in lumbar spinal cord from wild-type (WT), presymptomatic (ps-SOD1G93A), and end-stage (es-SOD1G93A) rats. The images were acquired from grey (GM) and white matter (WM) at two magnifications (scale bars: 50 μm left columns and 20 μm right column). Merged panels also show To-Pro-3 nuclear staining (TP3, blue).
