Downregulation of Transketolase Activity Is Related to Inhibition of Hippocampal Progenitor Cell Proliferation Induced by Thiamine Deficiency

<table>BrdU incorporation. Green represents BrdU-positive cells, red represents cells positive for nestin (a specific marker of HPCs), and blue represents nuclei stained with Hoechst. (c) Analysis of the TD group; the proportion of BrdU-positive cells of TD (a2) was significantly lower than that of the control group (a1). (d) Analysis of the oxythiamine-added groups; the proportion of BrdU-positive cells in HPCs treated with 50 <i>μ</i>M/L (b2) and 100 <i>μ</i>M/L (b3) oxythiamine was significantly lower than that of the 0 <i>μ</i>M/L group (b1). (a1) and (a2): scale = 50 <i>μ</i>m; (b1), (b2), and (b3): scale = 100 <i>μ</i>m.</table>
