Figure 1.

Effect of acrylamide on glutamate (A) and GABA (B) concentrations in the cerebral cortex at 4 weeks.

Data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n = 6). The differences between groups were compared with one-way analysis of variance, followed by Dunnett's post hoc test. *P < 0.05, vs. I (0 mg/kg); #P < 0.05, vs. II (5 mg/kg); &P < 0.05, vs. III (15 mg/kg). GABA: Gamma aminobutyric acid; I: control group; II: low-dose acrylamide group (5 mg/kg); III: moderate-dose acrylamide group (15 mg/kg); IV: high-dose acrylamide group (30 mg/kg).
