Fig. 2. Normal gross morphology and neuronal density, but reduced size of neuronal cell body in the Git1 knockout mouse brain. (A) Representative brain images of various brain regions of wild-type and Git1-/- mice. Scale bar, 1 mm (B) NeuN signal in the cortex (Ctx), CA1 region of the hippocampus (Hip), and ventrobasal thalamus (VB). Scale bar, 20 µm (C) Neuronal density was unaltered in the Git1-/- cortex, hippocampus and ventrobasal thalamus. n=4 (WT), 4 (KO). (D) The size of neuronal cell body was significantly decreased in the Git1-/- mice. n=6 (WT), 6 (KO). **p<0.01, ***p<0.001; Student's t test. Error bars indicate means±s.e.m.
