Figure 3. Relative sterol synthesis in the young WT and NPC1-/- mice brains.

Figure 3

On postnatal day 10, 3 μl of 3H-acetate (100 μCi) per mouse was injected into the lateral ventricle of the brains; 1 hr later mice were sacrificed and the brains were processed for lipid analyses according to procedures described in Materials and Methods. Four mice were used for each group. The results shown are from a single experiment. Each bar represents the mean + SEM. Statistical Analysis showed that there was no significant difference in values between the WT mice and the NPC1-/- mice.
