The SNL induced hypofunction and WTD mediated remission of the glutamate system in the hippocampus CA3 region on D21. Tissues on the right side are analyzed (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001).(A)Alternated expression of glutamate and γ-GABA (Mean ± S.E.M, N = 5). (B) Altered expression of vGLuT1 (Mean ± S.E.M, 4–5 mice per group), using GAPDH as the loading control. (C) Altered expression of NR1, NR2A, NR2B, GluR1 and GluR2 (Mean ± S.E.M, 3 mice analyzed in Sham/WTD group and 6 in SNL), using GAPDH as the loading control. The gel pictures in 4B and C have been cropped and the original full-length gels are presented in supplementary Fig. S3. (D) The quantification of BDNF and GluR1/GluR2 co-localization CA3 pyramidal neurons by double immunofluorescence (Mean ± S.E.M, N = 3), scale bar 200 μm.
