Comparison of Vascular Perturbations in an Aβ-Injected Animal Model and in AD Brain

Figure 1

Representative patterns of RECA-1 staining in rat hippocampus. (a) Microvessels in control (PBS) injected rat hippocampus (left panel) and microvessels in Aβ ₁₋₄₂-injected hippocampus (right panel). Scale bar is for 70 μm. (b) Bar graph for the number of microvessels/mm² (𝑛=5 each). (c) Bar graph for microvessel length (𝑛=5 each). *𝑃≤0.05 for Aβ ₁₋₄₂ versus PBS.
