Impact of the Hq mutation on SVZ injury after IR. Representative microphotographs of the SVZ in Wt mice stained with thionin/acid fuchsin 7 days after IR (a–d). We traced the SVZ and evaluated the areas (a, white dotted line) in three equally spaced sections per brain and used the average area as n=1. Bar=100 μm. Quantification of the SVZ areas of Wt, Het and Hq mice 7 days after IR (e). Data represent mean±S.E.M. ^**P<0.01. Wt: non-IR n=7, IR n=9. Het: non-IR n=5, IR, n=4. Hq: non-IR n=10, IR n=9
