LRP4 LDLα domain affects the thickness of mouse cerebral cortex. a Schematic diagram of somatosensory cortex area selected in Nissl staining and neuron staining. b Representative images of Nissl’s staining of the control, mr-Lrp4LacZ, and mr-Lrp4mitt mice brain; c Representative images of neuron staining (anti-NeuN) of the three types of mice brain; d The thickness of the somatosensory cortex in most layers (I, II/III, V and VI) decreased in mr-Lrp4LacZ mice, except layer IV increased. Mice per group, n = 3; e The neuron density was not different in the somatosensory cortical indicated layers in the three types of mice. Mice per type, n = 3. (Scale bar = 50 μm; Values are means ± SEM. t-test was used for analysis. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01)
