Astrocyte activation after meningitis. GFAP-positive astrocytes were not seen (A) in brains of uninfected control mice. In contrast, (B-D) in brains of infected mice, a high density of GFAP-positive astrocytes in the cortex reaching far into the superficial layer was observed. (B) Compared to infected placebo-treated animals, this was not altered by adjunctive treatment with (C) dexamethasone or (D) NT-3. GFAP staining (brown).
