For each brain, 10 replicate sections were analyzed. The numbers reported (GL = granular layer, ML = molecular layer) are the sum of the creatine deposits observed within the granular and molecular layers for the 10 tissue sections from each animal. No deposits were observed in the inner white matter. The reported mean is rounded to the nearest whole number.
