Table 2. Statistical significance of gene expression changes in adult rat medial prefrontal cortex after in utero WIN treatment.
The levels of mRNA’s of interest were determined from medical prefrontal cortex punches using qPCR (See Materials and methods for details). Statistical significance was determined using the unpaired Student’s t-test after outliers were detected and removed from the dataset using Grubbs’ test. p-Values of less than 0.05 are identified by bold text in the table. Relative expression levels for CB1, TRPV1, mGluR5 and DAGL-alpha are shown in Figure 10.
