Hippocampal GFAP and VAChT immunoblotting results. a The figure shows representative immunoblot of total hippocampal proteins from the four experimental groups. b, c The histogram shows densitometric quantification of GFAP (b) or VAChT (c) changes in gray values, expressed as % of sham oil group. Data of the four experimental groups are depicted as mean and S.E., actin was used as loading control. (GFAP analysis: n = 4 per group; VAChT analysis: sham oil, n = 4; sham n-3 PUFA, n = 5; sap oil, n = 3; sap n-3 PUFA, n = 4). Statistical significance of the post-hoc comparisons between sap oil and the remaining groups: *p < 0.05; ***p < 0.001; ****p < 0.0001)
