FIG. 4.

Granulocyte-macrophage gene deficient+lateral fluid percussion (GM-/-+LFP) mice display more severe brain atrophy, as demonstrated by representative images from each group of the injury groups (A–D). Mice given LFP displayed a significant decrease in ipsilateral cortex volume compared with sham-injured mice (E). Both groups of mice given LFP display significant increases in ipsilateral ventricle size compared with both sham-injured groups; however, GM-/-+LFP mice also have significantly larger ventricles than wild type (WT)+LFP mice (F). Both groups of mice given LFP display significant decreases in corpus callosum volume compared with both sham-injured groups; however, GM-/-+LFP mice also have significantly less corpus callosum than WT+LFP mice. *Significant effect of injury, p<0.05. **Significantly different than WT+Sham and GM-/-+Sham groups, p<0.05. ***Significantly different than all groups, p<0.05.
