Figure 2From: Systemic inflammation in early neonatal mice induces transient and lasting neurodegenerative effectsEarly lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration causes transient body and brain weight loss and decreases the cerebellar area. (A) Body and brain of CD1 wild-type mice were weighed at 1 and 9 days post-LPS administration. (B) Body weight of C57BL/6 (B6) CX3CR1gfp/+ mice was assessed at days 1/3/5/7/9 after LPS injection. (C) Cerebellar area was measured in tiled confocal images of brain sections from B6 CX3CR1gfp/+ mice at days 1/3/5/7/9 post-LPS (representative images with DAPI in (D). Results are mean ± SEM from at least four animals. **P < 0.01 vs. without (W/O) LPS.Back to article page
