Figure 6.
Effects of BSO and NAC on GPx1 expression in the stratum radiatum (SR) of the CA1 region under physiological- and 1 day-post-SE condition. Under physiological conditions, BSO reduces GPx1 expression, while NAC does not affect it, as compared to vehicle (Veh). Three days after SE, BSO more decreases GPx1 expression. NAC restores GPx1 expression to the control level. (A) Representative photos of GPx1 expression and its intensity. Bar = 25 μm. (B) Quantification of GPx1 (B) intensity in CA1 astrocytes (*,# p < 0.05 vs. control and vehicle, n = 7, respectively).
