Increase of neuroinflammation in APdE9/CP-Tg mice. Quantification of activated microglia, measured by Iba 1 staining, in the cortex of 17–20-month-old NTg, CP-TG, APdE9, and APdE9/CP-Tg mice. (A) Representative two-dimensional images of Iba 1-positive microglia in whole coronal brain slices. Scale bar = 50 μm. (B) Prostacyclin overexpression in the APdE9 mouse model significantly increases neuroinflammation measured by the presence of hyperactivated microglia in brain tissues. *p < 0.05 compared to NTg mice. n = 4−5 mice per group.
