PSD95 expression of in mice treated with following TBI. (A) PSD95 expression level in the four groups. TBI induced a significantly reduced PSD95 expression level compared with sham group. Dex treatment significantly increased PSD95 expression level compared with Veh group. (B) Western blotting confirmed the increased PSD95 expression in mice treated with Dex following TBI. (C) PSD95 protein quantification. Data were represented as the means ± standard error of the mean. ^###P<0.001 vs. sham and ^***P<0.001 vs. Veh. Dex, dexmedetomidine; PSD95, post-synaptic density 95; TBI, traumatic brain injury; Veh, vehicle.
