Fig. 1. Neuronal degeneration is greater in the ventral hippocampus compared to the dorsal hippocampus, 1 day after soman-induced SE.

A, B. Photomicrographs of panoramic Nissl-stained coronal brain sections showing the dorsal (A) and ventral (B) hippocampus. C, D, E, F. Photomicrographs of Fluoro-Jade C-stained sections showing the dorsal (C, E) and ventral (D, F) hippocampal subfields (scale bar is 300µ for both magnifications). G. Bar graph showing medians and interquartile range (IQR) of the neuropathology scores for the whole hippocampus, CA1 and CA3 subfields, hilar region, and granule cell layer of the dentate gyrus (IQR bar is not present in the CA1 area of the ventral hippocampus because there was no variability among animals in the neuropathology score). *p < 0.05 for comparisons between dorsal and ventral regions. #p < 0.05 for comparisons between the dorsal hilus and the other dorsal hippocampal subfields.
