Analysis of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (Bdnf) transcripts mRNA levels (A,C,D,E) and mature BDNF protein levels (B) in the crude synaptosomal fraction of prefrontal cortex (PFC) of tryptophan hydroxylase 2 (TPH2+/+) and TPH2−/− adult male and female rats. The data, expressed as % of TPH2+/+ male rats, represent the mean ± standard error mean (SEM) of at least 14 independent determinations for the RNA and six for the western blot. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs. TPH2+/+ of the same sex; $p < 0.05 vs. TPH2+/+/male (two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Fisher’s protected least significant difference (PLSD).
