Induction of C/EBPβ and C3 expression after KA injection in adult mice. Animals were injected in the right hemisphere with KA and sacrificed 72 h post-injection. a Immunohistochemical analysis of coronal brain sections using specific anti-C/EBPβ and anti-C3 antibodies, showing the CA3, CA1, and DG fields of the hippocampus. Scale bar, 50 μm. Inset scale bar, 25 μm. b Differential interference contrast images of coronal brain sections using specific anti-C/EBPβ and anti-C3 antibodies, showing the CA3, CA1, and DG fields of the hippocampus. Scale bar, 10 μm. c Representative images showing coexpression of C3 (DAB staining) and C/EBPβ (fluorescence) in the CA3 region. Scale bar, 20 μm. Inset scale bar, 10 μm
