  1. Cells positive for neural markers, alone and in combination with BrdU, are indicated as a percentage of total cells. Cells were counted in >3 matched sections from the DG of each mouse (n = 3 for each genotype). These data represent means ± S.E. *, p < 0.05 versus Tdo+/+ mice (ANOVA, Scheffe's post-hoc test).
