Figure 3. Reduced hippocampal size at different rostro-caudal levels of P14 Usp9x−/Y; Emx1-Cre mice.

Figure 3

Haematoxylin stained coronal sections of Usp9xloxP/Y (A,C,E) and Usp9x−/Y; Emx1-Cre (B,D,F) brains at rostral (A,B), middle (C,D) and caudal (E,F) levels of P14 hippocampi. The hippocampus of Usp9x−/Y; Emx1-Cre mice was significantly reduced at each of these levels at this age in comparison to the controls. (G,H) Quantification of the length of the inferior (G) and superior (H) blades of the dentate gyrus revealed that both blades were significantly reduced in length in mutant mice at rostral, middle and caudal levels in comparison to the controls. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01, t-test. Scale bar in (F): 150 μm.
