Table 2.
Quantification of C-tau labeling in the striatum of rats treated with amphetamine or para-methoxyamphetamine. C-tau positive cells were counted in defined regions of the striatum of rats killed 3 days after injection with VEH, AMPH or PMA as described in the legend of Table 1. Values represent mean ± SEM of 4–5 rats.
| Drug | Striatal C-tau (cell count ± SEM) |
|---|---|
| Vehicle | 17 ± 6 |
| AMPH | 51 ± 7* |
| PMA | 24 ± 8 |
P < 0.05 compared to vehicle-treated rats.
