Figure 3
Intensity membrane GABAAR labeling on BF cholinergic cells across conditions. Values (mean ± SEM per group) represent luminance measures (brightness of image acquired through camera) of GABAAR immunofluorescence (Cy3) over the plasma membrane (average two sides) minus that over the nucleus of each ChAT+ cell sampled (see Fig. 1B). The intensity of membrane GABAAR labeling was significantly higher in the SD group than in the SC (*) and SR (†) groups (p ≤ 0.05, based upon Tukey adjusted post-hoc comparisons, see text).
