Figure 2. Mino administration after AAV injection prevented the loss of dopaminergic cell bodies in the substantia nigra (SN) and striatal fibers. (A) Immunohistochemical staining of the tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)+ cells in the striatum and SN. (B, C) Quantification of TH+ cells in SN and fibers in striatum. Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (SD). *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01.
