Effects of blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) on cell injury in the brain (n = 6/group). (A) The number of Fluoro-Jade C (FJC) positive cells counted throughout 60 sections taken from the whole brain was significantly greater 24 and 48 h after bTBI compared with both the 24 and 48 h sham groups. (B) The numbers of FJC positive cells in the frontal (F) and parietal/temporal lobe (PT) region were significantly greater than in the sham group's F region and PT region. However, the bTBI group's occipital (O) region was not significantly different from the sham group's O region (p = 0.057, bTBI O vs. sham O). (C) The numbers of FJC positive cells in the frontal (F) and parietal/temporal lobe (PT) region were significantly greater 48 h post-bTBI in the bTBI group than in the sham group, but were not significantly different from sham in the occipital (O) region (p = 0.320, bTBI O vs. sham O). Values are plotted as means ± SEM. *p < 0.05 versus sham and F; **p < 0.001 versus sham.
