Figure 5. Juvenile mTBI reduces dopamine receptor D2 expression in the striatum.

Figure 5

Dopamine receptor D2 (D2R) density is shown in the ipsilateral striatum as percent of the contralateral striatum density. Brain injured mice exhibit a significant reduction in D2R staining in the injured (ipsilateral) hemisphere. An asterisk (*) indicates a significant difference, p < 0.05. Shown are representative coronal sections through the striatum, boxed areas through the striatum are enlarged and shown below, scale bar = 100 μm.
