FIG. 4.
A representative image of the splenium region from control (A) and injured (B) brain sections showing myelin basic protein (MBP) expression. Higher magnification images of the splenium region from control (C) and 72 h post mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) (D) used to quantify MBP expression. The 4 × and 20 × images captured used the same exposure time. Quantification of the expression of MBP indicated a significant decrease in the internal capsule (E), splenium (F), and fimbria (G). A significant decreased in MBP expression is observed in splenium 72 h after injury compared with controls. Scale bar is 500 μm (B). Error bars represent standard deviation.
