antibodies were donkey anti-mouse or anti-rabbit IgG conjugated to Cy3 (1:200; Jackson ImmunoResearch). Samples were imaged
using an Olympus Fluoview 1000 confocal microscope, and the images were edited using Adobe Photoshop CS6.0. Brain lobe size in
pixels was measured using the histogram function of Adobe Photoshop CS6.0. Data are presented as the means and standard
deviations calculated for each sample. A 2-tailed t test performed with Excel 2013 was used to determine whether the observed
differences were significant (p < 0.05).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
