Unilateral intranigral administration of BSSG triggers bilateral loss of NTSR1 immunoreactivity. a Representative merged micrographs of double immunostaining against NTSR1 (green) and TH (red) at the time displayed at the left margin in every row. b Graphs showing IFAD of NTSR1 and TH in the conditions of the panel a. The bars stand for the mean ± S.E.M. calculated from the measurements in three anatomical levels. n = 3 independent rats per time point in the BSSG group; n = 6 for Mock and UT groups. *, BSSG group compared with the control groups. When compared with the BSSG effect over time, & vs. 60 and Ω vs. 120 days after the lesion. Two-way ANOVA, Bonferroni post-test. p < 0.05. Representative micrographs of NTSR1-immunoreactivity details in the SNpc of the c mock condition and d injured condition at days 30 and e 120 after the BSSG injection. The scale bar = 50 μm is common for all micrographs in panel a and = 20 μm for the magnified images
