Expression of vesicular GLU transporter proteins in the cortex and thalamus of adult GAERS (grey bars) and NEC controls (hatched bars). Homogenates were subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblotted with anti-VGLUT1 (A) or anti-VGLUT2 (B) antibodies. The relative quantification was performed using a fluorimager. The results are represented as a percentage of the value in NEC rats (mean ± SEM; n = 6). Values were compared to control rat values with a two-tailed Student's t test (*p < 0.05)
