Figure 4. Lovastatin or ifenprodil administration promotes expression of BDNF and pCREB.

Figure 4

Bilateral hippocampus from each group were collected for western blotting analysis. GAPDH was used as a loading control. The optical density values were normalised to their respective GAPDH loading control, and the means±SD were graphed (relative expression) to semiquantitatively compare the protein levels. *p<0.05 vs. NC group, #p<0.001 vs. HH group. NC = normal control group; HH = hypoxia-hypercapnia group; HS =  hypoxia-hypercapnia+DMSO and PBS group; HL = hypoxia-hypercapnia+lovastatin; HI =  hypoxia-hypercapnia +ifenprodil group.
