Interaction between acute administration of therapeutic-relevant concentration of antipsychotics and Akt inhibitor (DEBC) on Cx43 protein expression in the astroglial plasma membrane fraction, after subchronic administration of therapeutic-relevant concentration of VPA (500 μM) (A). Interaction between subchronic administration of therapeutic-relevant concentration of antipsychotics and DEBC on Cx43 protein expression in the astroglial plasma membrane fraction, after subchronic administration of therapeutic-relevant concentration of VPA (B). Lower panels indicate their pseudo-gel images, using capillary immunoblotting. Ordinate: mean ± SD (n = 6) of the relative protein level of Cx43 (per GAPDH). Effects of antipsychotics and Akt inhibitor (DEBC: 10 μM) on Cx43 expression in the plasma membrane fraction of the primary cultured astrocytes were analyzed by MANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test (** p < 0.01 vs. non, @@ p < 0.01 vs. control).
