Synaptic small and total RNAome from hippocampal Synaptosomes and the synaptic compartments of microfluidic chambers
Here we isolate high quality synaptosomes from the hippocampus of young wild type mice and provide, at an unprecedented level, the coding and small non-coding synaptic RNAome. These data are complimented by a novel approach to analyze the synaptic RNAome from primary hippocampal neurons grown in microfluidic chambers.  Our data show that synaptic microRNAs control almost the entire synaptic mRNAome and we identified several hub microRNAs. By combining the in vivo synaptosomal data with our novel microfluid chamber system, we also provide evidence to support the hypothesis that part of the synaptic microRNAome may be supplied to neurons via astrocytes. Moreover, the microfluidic system is suitable to study the dynamics of the synaptic RNAome in response to stimulation as shown with KCL treatment. Overall design: Synaptosomes from hippocampi of 3 month old mice. The other samples are isolated neurites from microfluidic chambers
