BHD promoted neurogenesis in the hippocampus. Subpart (a) showing the alterations of Nestin and BrdU expression in the hippocampus by immunohistochemical staining; subpart (b) is the result of relative intensity analysis of Nestin; subpart (c) is the statistic of BrdU positive cells; subpart (d) is the result of Nestin mRNA expression. Data are presented as mean ± SD ( each group), , , indicate significant difference compared with the PSD group (scale bar = 50 μm).
