Microglia activation occurs globally in the brain during hepatic encephalopathy. (A) Field IBA1 field fluorescence (red) in the cortex and cerebellum from vehicle and AOM-treated mice. (B) Quantification of IBA1 field fluorescence in the cortex and cerebellum from vehicle- and AOM-treated mice. (C) IBA1 immunofluorescence (red) in individual cells in vehicle cortex, AOM cortex, vehicle cerebellum, and AOM cerebellum. For immunofluorescence quantification analyses * P <0.05 compared to vehicle-treated mice, n = 3.
