Changes in ER α and β in six brain regions. In OVX-induced and sham mice, the protein expression of ERα and β in the six brain regions were determined by western blotting from 4 to 12 weeks (A), and their intensities of ERα in sham group (B), ERα in OVX group (C), ratio of OVX to sham in ERα (D), ERβ in sham group (E), ERβ in OVX group (F), and ratio of OVX to sham in ERβ (G) were semi quantified using Image J. Hippo, hippocampus; PFC, prefrontal cortex; stri, striatum; RN, raphe nuclei; Amy, amygdala, and Hypo, hypothalamus. The data were analyzed by unpaired t-test for the difference between sham and OVX at the same time-point (Each, n = 6). #p < 0.05 and ##p < 0.01 compared with the sham group.
