Age-related changes in PV positive neuron density from the three subdivisions of the MGN. (A) Regression analyses of the estimated cell densities from the ventral MGN (vMGN; black diamonds), dorsal MGN (dMGN; gray squares), and magnocellular MGN (mMGN; white circles) as a function of age showed a significant correlation only in the vMGN. (B) Estimated cell densities of the vMGN, dMGN, and mMGN when the animals were combined into middle aged and old age groups revealed significant increases in both the vMGN and mMGN. Asterisks indicate significance by an unpaired t-test at an alpha level of 0.01.
