Analysis and quantification of Nurr1 and TH protein expression levels at various stages of hippocampal neural stem cell differentiation. (A) Nurr1 and TH protein bands detected by western blotting, at days 3 and 7 of differentiation. β-actin was used as an internal control. (B) The relative expression of Nurr1 and TH protein was shown at day 3 (0.499±0.072 and 0.212±0.031, respectively) and day 7 (0.792±0.067 and 0.473±0.072, respectively). Densitometric quantification of Nurr1 and TH protein expression, normalized to β-actin. ^*P<0.05 vs. day 3, assessed by Student's t-test. Data are presented as the mean ± standard error. Nurr1, nuclear receptor related-1 protein; TH, tyrosine hydroxylase.
