Figure 3. Gene expression levels of Cxs in the rat hippocampus during acute and latent periods.

Figure 3

(A) Cx36 gene expression remains stable throughout acute and latent periods. (B) On the other hand, we were not able to detect changes in Cx45 transcript levels in acute period, although increased expression was observed in the latent group. (C) Similar results were observed for Cx43 mRNA levels, since we were not able to detect significant differences in the acute group, but we found increased expression in the latent group when compared to controls. (D) Gene expression of cyclophilin A was used as internal control. Means from acute (n = 8) and latent (n = 8) groups were normalized based on control group (n = 8) expression levels. Bars represent standard errors of mean. *P<0.001 vs. Control group in Tukey's HSD pairwise comparisons after one-way ANOVA.
