Figure 6

Septal region, low and high power, photomicrographs to illustrate GFAP (top) and Lycopersicum esculentum (bottom) reacted sections after 15 or 18 w.p.i. Graphic representations illustrate the mean values and error bars of the total number of astrocytes and activated microglia in the septal region and corresponding activation index. Activation index was estimated by the following equation AI18/NBH = (ME718w − NBH)/(ME718w + NBH) or AI18/15 = (ME718w − ME715w)/(ME718w + ME7 15w) or AI15/NBH = (ME715w − NBH)/(ME715w + NBH) where AI is the activation index in the period and ME718w, ME715w and NBH are the estimates of the number of objects of interest at 15 and 18 w.p.i. in each region for each experimental group. Significant differences are indicated by (*) and the probability values by p level; (*) = 0.05; (**) = 0.025; (***) = 0.01. Scale bars: Scale bars: low power 250 µm; high power 25 µm.
