Unlike V1 where NR2B subunit exhibits significant decrease in the adult, PFC shows similar levels of NR2B protein expression in both young and adult animals. (A) Western blot with constant protein loadings from same PFC tissue sample (3.5 months) results in reproducible proportions of NR2A subunit and NR2B subunit. (B) summary of NR2B/NR2A ratio showing the significant decrease of NR2B in the V1 in the adult rats (P = 0.005) but not in PFC (P = 0.492), indicating a relative unchanged NR2A and NR2B subunit expressions in both young and adult rats in the PFC. (C) in contrast, the NR1 subunits are comparable, without significant differences between young and adult animals in both PFC and V1 (P > 0.05).
