TABLE I.

Total number of cells identified via Draq5 nuclear DNA staining, and the percent of GPP130-positive cells in cortex (S1 dysgranular zone, Bregma 0.48 mm) and dorsal striatum of Mn-treated rats, assessed at ×20 or ×63 magnification

Data are mean±SD; based on two microscopy fields per brain region (slice), six brain slices per animal, and three animals per treatment.

Data are mean±SD; based on 10 fields per brain region (slice) from one representative brain slice/animal/treatment.

Asterisks indicate significantly different from paired control (*P<0.05; **P<0.001, t-test).
