Figure 5

HSB diet does not alter hippocampal astrocyte reactivity. (A,D,G) Representative photomicrography of GFAP positive cells in the dentate gyrus (DG), CA1, and CA2–3. (B,E,H) Mean intensity fluorescence of GFAP stained for GFAP+ cells in DG, CA1, and CA2-3. (C,F,I) Percentual area stained for GFAP+ cells in DG, CA1, and CA2–3. Microscope lens ×20  and 80 µm scale bar for the image representation. Error bars represent the mean ± SEM; n = 6. Mann–Whitney test (B,C), and unpaired two tail T-student test (E,F,H,I).
