SVHRP increases the number GFAP-positive cells in the adult SGZ and SVZ.

<p>Immunostaining of GFAP (green). Scale bars represent 100 µm. a. Control; b. SVHRP. A) in SGZ. B) in SVZ. LV: lateral ventricle. C) Quantification of GFAP-positive cells per SVZ and SGZ slice. The bar graph shows numbers of GFAP-positive cells (mean ± SEM) in SVZ and SGZ. Control group <i>vs</i> SVHRP group, *<i>p</i><0.05, n = 4. D) RT-PCR of GFAP in the SVZ and SGZ. E) Quantification of GFAP mRNA levels in the SVZ and SGZ. The bar graph shows the intensity of GFAP/GAPDH (mean ± SEM) in the SVZ and SGZ section. Control group <i>vs</i> SVHRP group, *<i>p</i><0.05, n = 5. F) Western Blot of GFAP in SVZ and SGZ. G) Quantification of GFAP protein levels in the SVZ and SGZ. The bar graph shows Intensity of GFAP/β-actin (mean ± SEM) in the SVZ and SGZ. Control group <i>vs</i> SVHRP group, *<i>p</i><0.05, n = 4.
