Fig. 4From: High affinity of β-amyloid proteins to cerebral capillaries: implications in chronic lead exposure-induced neurotoxicity in ratsAltered LRP1 expression in brain capillary and parenchyma fractions following 4 or 8 weeks of in vivo Pb exposure in rats. A–F Effects of 4-week Pb exposure on LRP1 expression in hippocampal capillaries (A), hippocampal parenchyma (B), frontal cortex capillaries (C), frontal cortex parenchyma (D), capillaries of other brain regions (E), and parenchyma of other brain regions (F) by Western blot (WB). G–L Effects of 8-week Pb exposure on LRP1 expression in hippocampal capillaries (G), hippocampal parenchyma (H), frontal cortex capillaries (I), frontal cortex parenchyma (J), capillaries of other brain regions (K), and parenchyma of other brain regions (L) by WB. Data represent mean ± SD, n = 3; *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01, as compared to the controls in specific brain fractionBack to article page
