Newman, F. E. Hospod, C. S. Patlak, J. Cereb. Blood Flow Metab. 10, 510 (1990)]. Fractions derived from 2-DC, 2-DG-6P, free 2-DG, and glycogen compartments were placed in scintillation vials in triplicate, dried before addition of scintillant, and then counted on a Beckman scintillation counter.
12. 14C-labeled 2-DG uptake and neurotrophin content were normalized for sample protein content as measured by the bicinchoninic acid method (Pierce). This analysis was replicated on three separate sets of cultures. Time-dependent alterations in glucose utilization and neurotrophin levels were identified with one-way analysis of variance, and differences between determinations at distinct time points were tested post hoc for significance with the Newman-Keuls sequential range test.
