From: Neonatal hyperoxia exposure causes cerebellar lesions and behavioral abnormalities in rats
Neonatal hyperoxia exposure reduced cerebellar volume and affected myelin sheath growth. (A) Representative photomicrographs of the section stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) (Bar = 1000 μm). (B) Total cerebellar volume was significantly lower in the hyperoxia group than in the control group (control, n = 11; hyperoxia, n = 10). (C) Representative photomicrographs of the section stained with myelin basic proteins (MBPs) (Bar = 200 μm; Insets show higher-magnification views [Bar = 50 μm]). (D) The ratio of areas positive for MBPs in the hyperoxia group was significantly lower than that in the control group (control, n = 11; hyperoxia, n = 13). Data represent mean ± standard deviation; *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01.
