A and D illustrate the anatomical sites from where tissue sections were taken: CA1-hippocampus (A) and anterior cingulate (D). The histograms (B, C, E, and F) show the mean volumes of neuronal cell bodies and nuclei. In CA1, comparing ASYMAD versus controls, the mean volume of neuronal cell bodies is 48.7% larger (p < 0.0001) in ASYMAD (B), and the nuclear volume 30.4% (p < 0.001) larger in ASYMAD (C). In anterior cingulate gyrus, the cell bodies are 43.5% (p < 0.0001) larger (E) and nuclei 55.5% (p < 0.0001) larger (F) in ASYMAD compared to controls. The bars correspond to the standard errors of the mean.
