Mouse Brain PSA-NCAM Levels Are Altered by Graded-Controlled Cortical Impact Injury
Figure 6
PSA-NCAM staining in left temporal lobe one-week following graded-CCI. Diaminobenzidine staining for PSA-NCAM in sham (a), moderate (b), and severe (c) injury animals one week after CCI demonstrates decreased staining of the soma (large arrows) and apical dendrites (small arrows) of neurons in the piriform cortex. Insert denotes approximate region of interest at approximately bregma −1.70 mm. Images are 20(x) magnification; scale bar = 300 μm.
