Combined Supplementation of Choline and Docosahexaenoic Acid during Pregnancy Enhances Neurodevelopment of Fetal Hippocampus

Figure 7

Comparison of number of neural cells in DG region of 5 μ thick hippocampal sections. Mean number of neural cells ± Standard Error from 250 μm area of DG region of hippocampus from either side in normal control (NC), saline control (SC), choline (C), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and choline + docosahexaenoic acid (C + DHA) age matched group of rats. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test. “”, NC versus supplemented groups; “a”, C supplemented group versus C + DHA group; and “b”, DHA supplemented group versus C + DHA group.   &  .
