Figure 3. Brain BDNF protein levels are modulated by the rearing condition.

Figure 3

Old and Young (Yng) groups showed higher BDNF levels in the hippocampus, hypothalamus and frontal cortex compared to both standard nesting (SN) and Middle (Mid) group (n= 5-6 per group). The cage was considered as the statistical unit. * = p < 0.05 vs. SN mice; # and ##= respectively, p < 0.05 and p < 0.01 vs. Middle group. Data shown are means ± SEMs.
