The 3xTg-AD hippocampus does not have an increased number of macrophages/microglia at 6 months of age. Coronal brain sections from 2 and 6 month-old 3xTg-AD and control mice were stained with the anti-F4/80 antibody and developed using DAB. (A) Qualitative analyses shows little change in activation of microglia and macrophages in the hippocampus of 3xTg-AD or non-transgenic mice over time. (B) Unbiased stereology was performed on the hippocampal formation to determine total number of F4/80-positive cells. Error bars indicate standard deviation. N = 4 per genotype per time point. The scale bar represents 50 μm.
