Figure 2From: LTP induction within a narrow critical period of immature stages enhances the survival of newly generated neurons in the adult rat dentate gyrusHFS enhances cell proliferation in the DG. (A, B, C) The number of BrdU-labeled cells in the sampling area of the DG in the HFS side (right) and the contralateral side (left). (D) BrdU (red) immunoreactivity 1 day after a BrdU injection into the DG of an HFS (500)-treated rat. Nuclei (green) are stained with SYTOX Green. Scale bars, 100 μm. (E) Right/left (R/L) ratio of the number of BrdU-labeled cells. * P < 0.05, error bars indicate SEM. The number of animals used is indicated by "n" (A, B, C) or is given in parentheses (E).Back to article page
