Proliferation of newborn neurons in the dentate gyrus (DG). a Newborn cells were labeled with both diamidino phenylindole (DAPI; blue) and the specific immature granule cell-maker doublecortin (DCX; green). b Reconstructed orthogonal images(x–z and y–z planes) displaying DCX or DAPI immunoreactivity separately or as a merged image. c The number of DCX-positive cells in the EP group was significantly less than in the SHAM group (*P < 0.05 vs. SHAM). DL-NBP treatment significantly increased cell proliferation (#P < 0.05 vs. EP). n = 5 per group. Scale bars: a 50 μm; b 20 μm
