Figure 7. GFAP-stained hypothalamus after splenectomy and 24h MEL or SAL.
Figure 7A is based upon ratings of semiquantitative analysis of the extent of GFAP astrocyte immunoreactivity in Figure 7B. Decreased GFAP immunoreactivity in the hypothalamus in mice receiving MEL is observed after splenectomy on day 5 (p=0.04 by Mann-Whitney test). (Scale bar =100 µm)
