Synchrotron FTIR Microspectroscopy Study of the Striatum in 6-Hydroxydopamine Rat Model of Parkinson's Disease

Table 2

The ratios of ν(CH) : ν _as(CH₃) and ν _as(CH₂) : ν _as(CH₃) in the striatal neurons.

	Control	PD lesioned side	PD unlesioned side
ν=(CH) : ν as(CH3)	0.017±0.003	0.089±0.02 ** (𝑃=0.001)	0.034±0.006 ** (𝑃=0.038)
ν as(CH2) : ν as(CH3)	1.27±0.05	1.53±0.06 ** (𝑃=0.007)	1.79±0.05 ** (𝑃=0.001)

**Statistically significant differences between control and PD group were marked, the 𝑃 values of Mann-Whitney 𝑈 test were shown in the parenthesis.
