Relative Melanocytes a | Apoptotic Melanocytes b (%) | Blood Vessels c | |
---|---|---|---|
NV | 0.2 ± 0.1 | 70 ± 0.8 | Few |
GNP-LLO91–99 | 1 ± 0.1 | 1 ± 0.1 | Normal |
GNP-GAPDH1–22 | 1 ± 0.1 | 0.9 ± 0.1 | Normal |

a Relative melanocytes, correspond to the number of melanocytes per 1 mm of skin measured by immunohistochemistry; b Apototic melanocytes, correspond to the percentages of melanocytes positive for the TUNNEL staining; c Blood vessels were observed in whole brains with magnifying lens and classified as few or normal.
