Activated Fluoro-Jade B in brain. (A) Brain sections were stained with Fluoro-Jade B, a marker of cell death, and quantitated in cortex and dentate gyrus. The Fluoro-Jade B fluorescence in cortex and dentate gyrus was increased by ethanol, poly I:C and sequential ethanol-poly I:C. The results are the means ± SEM of two independent experiments performed with seven mice per group. **P <0.01, compared with vehicle control. ## P <0.01, compared with poly I:C. (B) Confocal microscopy images of cortex (upper panels) and dentate gyrus (lower panels) in ethanol-poly I:C group. Immunolabeling was visualized by using Alexa Fluor 488 and 555. Confocal microscopy indicates that Fluoro-Jade B in green (left panels) are NeuN positive in red (middle panels), as shown in the merged images (right panels) with arrows indicating yellow co-labeling. Scale bar, 30 μm.
