Effects of Mating and Social Exposure on Cell Proliferation in the Adult Male Prairie Vole (Microtus ochrogaster)

Figure 5

Cell proliferation, total BrdU/DCX-positive cells, and percentage of BrdU/DCX-positive cells in the RMS (a–c) for the control (C), social exposure to a female (SE m/f), social exposure to a male (SE m/m), and social cohabitation with mating (SCM) male voles. One-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni’s post hoc tests. and . Results of ANOVA analyses are provided in the text. Anterior RMS: C (), SE m/f (), SE m/m (), and SCM (); medial RMS: C (), SE m/f ( ), SE m/m (), and SCM (); and posterior RMS: C (), SE m/f (), SE m/m (), and SCM ().
