Figure 1. Prenatal stress reduces the fragmentation of caspase-8 and calpain-2.

Immunoblots probed with antibodies towards caspase -8 (A) and calpain -2 (B) in the hippocampus, hypothalamus and pituitary of control rats and prenatally stressed rats (PS). The average of three independent assays is shown. Statistical significance by Student’s t test: * P<0.05 and ** P<0.01; n = 3–4/group.
