PBM increased undifferentiated/early neuronal cell population in the DG of the hippocampus after SE. (A) Representative coronal section views of Z-stacks obtained by confocal microscopy show the localization of DCX positive cells in the SGZ of the hippocampal DG. Immunostaining was performed with NeuN (for mature neuron, red) and DCX (for immature neuron, green). Scale bar 100 µm. (B) Quantification of the DCX fluorescent intensity in SGZ are shown. Expression of DCX fluorescent intensity are increased in 180 J PBM treated groups compared to the SE group only at 14 day. The quantitative data are presented as the mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05 compared with to SE group. (C) Quantification of the DCX positive cells in SGZ are shown. DCX positive cells are increased in 180 J PBM treated groups compared to the SE group only at 14 day. The quantitative data are presented as the mean ± SEM. ***P < 0.001 compared with to SE group.
