Figure 5. Prenatal Cigarette Smoke Exposure Reduces Striatal Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) mRNA and Protien.

Figure 5

(A) Striatal BDNFmRNA, as measured by QPCR, was decreased in 4-month old male, offspring exposed in utero to cigarette smoke (CS). (B,C) Western blot analysis of BDNF revealed significantly decreased BDNF protien levels in CS-exposed male offspring. p < 0.05 by Students t-test.
