Arc protein expression in rat hippocampal subfields after MFB-ICSS treatment. a Mean immunohistochemical intensities in each analyzed layer from CA1, CA3 and DG hippocampal subfields in the ipsilateral and contralateral hemispheres.*p  <.05 versus Sham group. Standard errors are indicated with error bars. b Representative immunohistochemestry image of Arc protein expression in the CA1 subfield from one subject from the Sham and MFB-ICSS groups. (x400, scale bar 25 µm; stereotaxic coordinates AP – 3.24 bregma). Black arrows and arrowhead indicate Arc immunoreactive cytoplasmatic prolongations and cell body, respectively (Ra, radiatum; La, lacunosum; P, pyramidal; O, oriens)
