C-terminal domain of the heavy chain of tetanus toxin (Hc-TeTx) had a differential effect on methamphetamine (METH)-induced microgliosis vs astrogliosis in the striatum. Although METH had a consistent effect on both micro- and astrogliosis, Hc-TeTx (Hc) had varied interactions with METH vis-a-vis these markers of central inflammatory responses. Photomicrographs of ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba-1) (A) and glial fibrillary acidic protein antibody (GFAP)-stained (B) sections of the striatum of mice at 3 and 7 days after METH with and without Hc-TeTx (Hc) treatment. Histograms show the proportional stained area in the striatum. Data represent mean ± SEM, n = 6–8/group. *P<.05, **P<.01, ***P<.001 vs saline group, ###P<.001 vs METH group. Bar indicates 50 μm.
