Parameter DG region CA1 region CA3 region
Astrocyte morphology
    Soma density F(2,84) = 30.53* F(2,84) = 22.83* F(2,84) = 24.37*
    Soma area F(2,84) = 18.27* F(2,84) = 24.6* F(2,84) = 19.5*
    Sum inters F(2,84) = 14.53* F(2,84) = 13.03* F(2,84) = 10.18*
    Mean inters F(2,84) = 20.42* F(2,84) = 13.4* F(2,84) = 12.76*
    Ramification index F(2,84) = 14.24* F(2,84) = 11.37* F(2,84) = 16.81*
    Astrocyte length F(2,84) = 20.14* F(2,84) = 28.86* F(2,84) = 23.1*
Microglia morphology
    Soma density F(2,84) = 9.216* F(2,84) = 54.27* F(2,84) = 25.22*
    Soma area F(2,84) = 18.24* F(2,84) = 47.28* F(2,84) = 27.67*
    Sum inters F(2,84) = 17.21* F(2,84) = 30.28* F(2,84) = 30.85*
    Mean inters F(2,84) = 21.58* F(2,84) = 45.18* F(2,84) = 18.76*
    Ramification index F(2,84) = 62.23* F(2,84) = 12.55* F(2,84) = 27.44*
    Microglial length F(2,84) = 19.53* F(2,84) = 32.63* F(2,84) = 34.45*

Two way ANOVA followed by Tukey post hoc test with multiple comparison was applied for statistical comparison. *p < 0.05 is significantly different compared to control.
