Figure 2.
VGLUT 1 and VGLUT2 mRNA (n = 10) and protein (n = 8) expression in rat cortex following 28 days treatment with haloperidol 2/mg/kg/day or vehicle. Haloperidol decreased VGLUT2 protein in FC but had no other effects. Abbreviations: frontal cortex (FC), parietal cortex (PC), cingulate cortex (CC). mRNA data are expressed as mean ± SEM optical density values. Protein data are expressed as the mean ± SEM of VGLUT optical density/tubulin optical density.
