Fig. 4From: Susceptibility to chronic immobilization stress‐induced depressive-like behaviour in middle‐aged female mice and accompanying changes in dopamine D1 and GABAA receptors in related brain regionsChanges in the mRNA level of GABRA1 in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) and prefrontal cortex (PFC). The data are presented as the mean ± SEM. a GABRA1 expression in the NAc. b GABRA1 expression in the PFC. Age could directly induce a decrease in the mRNA level of GABRA1 in the NAc and PFC in mice in the absence of stress. Moreover, CIS could induce a reduction in the mRNA level of GABRA1 in the PFC in young mice but not middle-aged mice. *P < 0.05 compared with the age-matched control group; #P < 0.05 compared with young mice subjected to the same treatment.
