Effects of aging on changes of Nissl bodies in the cortex and hippocampus in mice (Nissl staining, 400 × , scale bar = 20 μm). A The results of Nissl staining in the cortex, hippocampus CA1 and CA3 in 6 M, 16 M, 20 M and 24 M mice. B The mean density of Nissl bodies in the cortex. C The mean density of Nissl bodies in hippocampus CA1. D The mean density of Nissl bodies in hippocampus CA3. Results are expressed as mean ± SD, n = 4. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 vs the 6 M control. AU presents an arbitrary unit
