The Incucyte® Neuroprime Kits contain cryopreserved vials of rat cortical neurons and astrocytes isolated from embryonic stage (E18) Sprague-Dawley rats as well as sufficient Incucyte® Neurolight Red or Orange Lentivirus to perform one 96-well experiment. The lentivirus encodes a red (mKate2) or orange (TagRFP) fluorescent protein regulated by a synapsin promoter that selectively drives expression in neurons and minimizes expression in nonneuronal cell types. After 6 days in co-culture, the neurons form extensive neurite networks enabling the neurotoxic or neuroprotective effects of treatments to be assessed. Dynamic changes in neuronal network length and branching are measured using Incucyte® Live-Cell Analysis Systems.
