Figure 6From: Cynomorium songaricum extract enhances novel object recognition, cell proliferation and neuroblast differentiation in the mice via improving hippocampal environment Effects of CSE on BDNF mRNA expression. BDNF mRNA expression in the dentate gyrus of the vehicle-treated, 40 mg/kg CSE-treated, and 100 mg/kg CSE-treated groups as assessed by quantitative PCR (n = 5 per group; *P < 0.05, versus vehicle-treated group). BDNF mRNA expression in the dentate gyrus is higher in the CSE-treated groups than in the vehicle-treated group. All data are shown as the ratio to vehicle-treated group ± SEM.Back to article page
