Fig. 3From: Astrocytic ceramide as possible indicator of neuroinflammationIncreased levels of ceramide in specifically astrocytes in FTD-Pi. Colocalization studies indicated that a ceramide containing cells (green) were immunopositive for GFAP (red), indicative of astrocytes. Nuclei were counterstained with Hoechst (blue). Bar: 20 μm. b Quantitative analysis of the fluorescent intensity of ceramide in astrocytes in control (n = 5), PDD (n = 5), and FTD-Pi (n = 5). The values represent the mean ± S.E.M. Statistical significance (Kruskal-Wallis test, with Dunn’s multiple correction) indicated with asterisks: **p < 0.01Back to article page
