Amygdaloid nucleus; Day 28 after administration with saline (A, C, E, G) and kainic acid (B, D, E, F), HE staining: (A, B), expression of phosphorylated tau protein: (C, D), GFAP: (E, F), Iba1: (G, H). B Red circle: neuronal cell death, black arrow: neuron around necrosis. D Black arrow: increased expression of phosphorylated tau protein in neuron around necrosis. E Increase of the number and cell bodies of GFAP-positive cells. F Increase of the number and cell bodies of Iba1-positive cells
