Histological analysis of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in 6-OHDA rats with or without DP treatment. a TH immunoreactivity was decreased in both substantia nigra and striatum in the 6-OHDA-injected group compared to the sham group when examined 5 weeks post injection. However, the 6-OHDA-mediated reduction in TH immunoreactivity was significantly alleviated by daily intraperitoneal injection of DP. b, c Quantitative analysis of TH+ cells in the SNpc (b) and TH density in the striatum (c). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ANOVA. Data are expressed as mean ± SD, n = 5 in each group. Scale bar, 1 mm
