Values are mean ± SEM. Means without a common letter are statistically different (P < 0.05, two-way ANOVA (analysis of variance) followed by Tukey’s test). Sham: sham-operated mice, Sham + EMIQ: sham-operated mice receiving EMIQ, Ovld: functionally overloaded mice, Ovld + EMIQ: functionally overloaded mice receiving EMIQ
