Laterality and region-specific tau phosphorylation correlate with PTSD-related behavioral traits in rats exposed to repetitive low-level blast

Table 3 P-tau phosphorylation at Thr181 by brain region

Brain region/time post-blast exposure	Anterior cortex		Hippocampus		Amygdala		Posterior cortex
Side	Left	Right	Left	Right	Left	Right	Left	Right
Six weeks	NC	↑	NC	↑	ND	ND	ND	ND
40 weeks	↑	↑	NC	↑	NC	NC	NC	NC
52 weeks	↑	↑	NC	↑	ND	ND	ND	ND

↑ = increased; NC = no change; ND = not determined. Phosphorylation at Thr181 was determined by Western blotting using the antibody AT270 in data previously reported [21]
