Table 3. Acute sensory stimulation does not affect the numerical densities of ERβ-positive cells across cortical layers of V1.
Layers/Group | Control | 30 min | 1 h | 2 h |
Supragranular | 20.1±1.8 | 19.8±1.5 | 19.4±1.6 | 20.4±1.9 |
Granular | 20.4±1.6 | 19.1±1.8 | 19.9±1.9 | 19.6±1.7 |
Infragranular | 21.8±1.6 | 19.9±1.8 | 20.4±1.9 | 20.8±1.5 |
Data are expressed as mean ×103 neurons/mm3 ± S.E. No significant differences were detected across groups for all cortical layers (all p>0.05).
