Fig 5. Western blotting analysis of the levels of each protein.
Images of western blots for each protein examined in cortex (Cortex), cerebellum (Cer), and hippocampus (Hip) were scanned and digitized to determine band intensities, which were normalized to the intensity of staining by Ponceau S for the respective sample. Data are expressed as means ± SE (Control, n = 5; Control-FIR, n = 5; AD, n = 6; AD-FIR, n = 6). The data were analyzed using Tukey-Kramer’s tests. N.S., not significant (p ≥ 0.05). * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 vs. AD.
