Internal carotid artery occlusion affected primary cilia alignment in the dentate gyrus but not in striatum or thalamus. (A) Shown are distribution plots of primary cilia angle and position (°) in DG. (B) Shown are distribution plots of primary cilia angle and position (°) in Thal. (C) Shown are distribution plots of primary cilia angle and position (°) in DStr. Two-sample Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests: DG angle: P >0.05, DG position: P = 0.011, N = 61 cells (sham), 85 cells (occlusion); Thal angle: P >0.05, Thal position: P >0.05, N = 55 cells (sham), 40 cells (occlusion); DStr orientation: P >0.05, DStr orientation: P >0.05, N = 78 cells (sham), 76 cells (occlusion).
