Iba1+ microglial cells quantification in the hippocampus. (A) Representative images showing the hippocampus of brain coronal sections DAB-stained for Iba1. Scale bars apply to every picture of the same magnification. (B) Line plot with superimposed scatter plot illustrating the correlation between Iba1 + mean cell area and the percentage of reactive microglia for the animals of the STZ study. (C) Box plot with overlaid scatter plot displaying the percentage of reactive microglia in the hippocampal SR. N = 8/group. *p < 0.05. SR: Stratum Radiatum. DH: Dentate Hilus.
