Figure 6.
GAD67 mRNA labeling in PPE-negative striatal neurons was quantified by computerized image analysis of emulsion autoradiographs in 6-OHDA-lesioned rats injected with vehicle or SKF-81297 (acute-3 hours, acute-72 hours or subchronic). Data are mean±S.E.M. expressed as an average number of pixels per labeled neuron. Two slides per animals were analyzed with n=5 per group. *p<0.05 compared to the respective contralateral side. Differences between groups are analyzed with a one-way ANOVA followed by a Bonferroni post hoc test. #p<0.05 compared to vehicle; ¶p<0.05 compared to acute-3 hours.
