Representative examples of p-tau immunofluorescence studies in sham, 6-OHDA-lesioned rats treated with vehicle, pulsatile L-dopa (20 mg/kg, bid) or LBM-M (40 mg/kg).
In 6-OHDA lesioned rats treated with L-dopa induced approximately increase in p-tau-positive neurons compared to other three group. These L-dopa-induced increases in positive neurons disappear in LBM-M group. Shown is a coronal section of the striatum from the lesioned hemisphere; ## p < 0.05 vs LID rats.
