DHF treatment did not improve metabolic function and ER-mitochondria communication. Legend: PACS-2 and VDAC-1 expression in the hippocampus and cortex of Wild Type (WT), Tg26, and DHF treated Tg26 mice (A-P). Immunohistochemical stained sections show PACS-2 and VDAC-1 expressing cells in the hippocampal and cortex regions of the mice brains. 3 WT mice, 3 Tg26 mice, and 4 TG + DHF mice were used. A, B, C, E, F, G, I, J, K, M, N, and O are 400 × magnification pictures of the hippocampus and cortex regions of the mice. (D) Quantification of PACS-2 expressing cells in the hippocampus: p < 0.001, WT versus Tg; p > 0.05, Tg versus Tg + DHF. (H) Quantification of PACS-2 expressing cells in cortex: p < 0.001, WT versus Tg; p > 0.05, Tg versus Tg + DHF. (L) Quantification of VDAC-1 expressing cells in the hippocampus: p < 0.001, WT versus Tg; p > 0.05, Tg versus Tg + DHF. (P) Quantification of VDAC-1 expressing cells in cortex: p < 0.001, WT versus Tg; p < 0.05, Tg versus Tg + DHF. The total numbers of hippocampal fields analyzed (WT, Tg26, TG + DHF) for each antibody were PACS-2 (62, 110, 112), VDAC-1 (64, 119, 124). The total numbers of cortex fields analyzed (WT, Tg26, TG + DHF) for each antibody were PACS-2 (15, 10, 20), VDAC-1 (15, 15, 20). One Way ANOVA with a Bonferroni's Multiple Comparison post-test.
