Neuroprotective Effects of Asparagus officinalis Stem Extract in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Amyloid Precursor Protein

Figure 7

Quantification of tau protein in the hippocampus of APP-overexpressed mice treated with ETAS (200 mg/kg and 1000 mg/kg) and WT mice treated with ETAS (1000 mg/kg) for 1 month, respectively. APP-ETAS (200 mg/kg) vs. APP saline-treated mice; APP-ETAS (1000 mg/kg) vs. APP saline; WT-ETAS (1000 mg/kg) vs. WT saline-treated mice; RFUs: relative fluorescence units. Four mice per group and four sections per mouse were used. Green represents tau protein, and blue represents DAPI. Arrows represent fluorescent green staining, indicating positive expression. Magnification is represented ×200.
