Effect of rapamycin on neurodegeneration 2 days after QA administration (n = 5–7 animals/group). Rapamycin was injected 15 min before QA injection into the striatum and after 2 days, and dead neurons were evaluated. a–e Representative FJC of the right striatum in 10×. f A graph of the FJC data of the right striatum. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM. ***p < 0.001 as compared to vehicle + PBS. ## p < 0.001 as compared to vehicle + QA. §§ p < 0.01 as compared to Rapa 0.2 + PBS (one-way ANOVA followed by Newman-Keuls test)
