Figure Lengend Snippet: Immunofluorescence analysis of GHR and SSTR2 in the prefrontal cortex. A Proposed signaling pathway of GH in regulating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR axis (KEGG Entry: map04935). B Quantitative analysis of the expression levels of GHR and SSTR2. C Representative immunofluorescence images of GHR and SSTR2 (50.0×, Scale bar: 20 μm). The data are presented as mean ± SD ( n = 3). ### p < 0.001 vs. control group; *** p < 0.001 vs. VPA group
Article Snippet: For immunofluorescence staining, free-floating hypothalamic sections were co-incubated with primary antibodies against somatostatin (SST) (1:100, rabbit, bs-37040R, Bioss) and growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) (1:100, rabbit, bs-0205R, Bioss), while prefrontal cortical sections were incubated with primary antibodies targeting growth hormone (GH) (1:1000, rabbit, GB113303-100, Servicebio), phospho-AKT (1:100, rabbit, bs-0876R, Bioss), phospho-mTOR (1:100, rabbit, bs-3495R, Bioss), growth hormone receptor (GHR) (1:100, rabbit, bs-0654R, Bioss), and somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) (1:100, rabbit, bs-10986R, Bioss).
