From: MBD3 expression and DNA binding patterns are altered in a rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy
Level of MBD3 immunofluorescence in normal vs. epileptic animals.
(A) Representative images of temporal lobe structures in sham-operated and epileptic rats, immunostained with MBD3 antibody (green). (B) Quantitative analysis of immunofluorescence levels in selected structures in control and epileptic animals. The data are expressed as the relative level of MBD3 immunoreactivity ± SD. n = 5. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 (two-way ANOVA). BLA, basolateral nucleus of the amygdala; BMD, basomedial nucleus of the amygdala; CNT, central nucleus of the amygdala; LAT, lateral nucleus of the amygdala; MBD3, methyl-CpG binding domain protein 3; MED, medial nucleus of the amygdala; PIRIII, piriform cortex. Scale bar = 500 μm.
