From: Improved spatial learning and memory by perilla diet is correlated with immunoreactivities to neurofilament and α-synuclein in hilus of dentate gyrus

Statistical presentation of the immunohistochemical staining of brain sections of rats. Expression levels of AMPA receptor (A) and α-synuclein (B) represented by immunoreactivities in the sections were quantitated by a software, iSolution, and statistically compared (*, p<0.05, and **, p<0.01). The sections of brains of rats fed perilla (white bar) or perilla oil (grey bar) diet for 3 weeks (3W) or 3 months (3M) were more immunoreactive to the antibodies against AMPA receptor and α-synuclein than those of rats fed control (black bar) diet. Although anti-neurofilament antibody did not show a significant immunoreactivity (Figure  4C) between control and perilla groups in the sections, the cells stained by the anti-neurofilament antibody have significantly longer neurite projections (*, p<0.05, and **, p<0.01) (C).
