Figure 3. Increased degenerating neurons in the hippocampus 7 d after. 1-42 administration. (A-C) Representative photomicrographs of the CA3 of the hippocampus from WT mice (A) injected with Aβ1-42 that shows numerous FJB-positive cells compared with Aβ1-42-injected COX-1-/- mice (B). Representative photomicro-graphs of DAPI (D-F) and Nissl staining (G-I) in the CA3 of hippocampus from Aβ1-42-injected WT (D, G) and COX-1-/-mice (E, H). Scale bar: A-I, 100 μm. (J) Comparison of the number of FJB-positive cells from the CA3 area. Mean ± SEM (n = 3-4 per group); **P < 0.01 compared with the Aβ42-1-injected WT mice; ##P < 0.01 compared with the Aβ1-42-injected WT mice.
