a Confocal micrographs show GFAP-stained coronal striatum sections from the sham plus alcohol group. b-c In the ipsilateral striatum, FPI did not significantly alter astrocyte optical densities in striatal subregions (b) or the average density of astrocytes in the entire ipsilateral DMS (c). d Confocal micrographs of GFAP-stained coronal striatum sections from the FPI plus alcohol group. e-f In the contralateral striatum, FPI did not significantly alter astrocyte optical densities in striatal subregions (e) or the average density of astrocytes in the entire contralateral DMS (f). n.s.
