Overexpression of Slit2 protects against dysfunctional axonal connectivity induced by MIs. a Representative image showing BDA injection (10×). b Images of BDA-positive neurons and axons in ipsilateral hippocampus, ipsilateral entorhinal cortex, and contralateral parietal cortex. c Comparison of BDA-positive cells in ipsilateral hippocampus, ipsilateral entorhinal cortex, and contralateral parietal cortex among sham and MI groups of WT and Slit2-Tg mice (20×, 1 field/slice, 5 slices per mouse). Each dataset is expressed as mean ± SD. ^*P ≤ 0.05; ^**P ≤ 0.01; ^***P ≤ 0.001; ^****P ≤ 0.0001. n = 6 mice
