Insulin deficiency inhibited glucose uptake in the hippocampus.

<p>(A) Representative images showing 2-NBDG positive cells at CA3, white arrows indicate the 2-NBDG positive cells. (B) 2-NBDG-positive cells at CA3 were fewer in the OVX and N+anti rats than in the normal rats. (C) Hippocampal tissues were used for western blot with GLUT4 and GAPDH antibodies. (D) Densitometric analysis of scanned western blots. ^aP<0.05, OVX group vs. normal group. ^bP<0.05, N+anti group vs. normal group. ^cP<0.05 and ^ccP<0.01, N+anti group vs. OVX group. <i>n</i> = 8.
