IL-12 brain levels. a IL-12/23 p40 levels did not show brain region-specific differences. b The heterodimeric IL-12 p70 showed brain region-specific differences, with higher levels in the hippocampus than in the entorhinal cortex. c The molar ratio of IL-12/23 p40 to IL-12 p70 (p40:p70) was elevated in the temporal cortex compared with the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex (§ p < 0.02, Tukey’s HSD). d IL-12 p70:p40 molar ratios were depressed in the entorhinal cortex (compared to the hippocampus and temporal cortex, **p ≤ 0.01 Tukey’s HSD), despite higher p70 levels in the hippocampal specimens.
