Figure 7. Progesterone-induced increase in the GluA1 and GluA2 subunit expression was blocked in PR−/− mice.

Figure 7

A: Western blots showing the GluA1 and GluA2 subunit expression in the hippocampal proteins isolated from 2 vehicle-treated (lanes C1 and C2) and 3 progesterone-treated (100 mg/kg, 24 hours, lanes P1 to P3) PR−/− female mice. The expression of GluA1 and GluA2 subunits in the hippocampi of 2 vehicle or progesterone treated PR+/+ mice is shown for the comparison. The mice were matched for estrous cycle stage. B: The subunit expression in progesterone-treated animals expressed as fold-of vehicle-treated controls (n=8 vehicle-treated and 9 progesterone-treated PR−/− mice and n= 8 vehicle-treated and progesterone-treated PR+/+ mice, ** p<0.0005 and * p<0.05, Mann-Whitney test).
