Figure Lengend Snippet: Morin modulated the expression of NMDA receptors in the hippocampus of VaD rats. a the expression levels of NR1 ; b the expression levels of NR2A ; c the expression levels of NR2B ; d the expression levels of NR1 protein; e the expression levels of NR2A protein; f the expression levels of NR2B protein; g protein levels of p-CREB; h protein levels of p-CAMK2A; i protein levels of p-CAMK2D. Protein levels of NR1, NR2A, and NR2B were quantified by ELISA. Data are presented as mean ± SD ( n = 8 per group). Statistical analysis was performed by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test (data met assumptions of normality and homoscedasticity)/Kruskal-Wallis with Dunn’s test (data did not meet assumptions). * indicates a significant difference from the Sham group; # indicates a significant difference 2VO group; *# indicates a significant difference from both the Sham and 2VO groups, with a p-value of less than 0.05 considered statistically significant

Article Snippet: Moreover, phosphorylation levels of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II isoforms CAMK2A and CAMK2D at Thr286 (p-CAMK2A, p-CAMK2D) were quantified using the Colorimetric Cell-Based ELISA Kit (CAMK2A/CAMK2D (Phospho-Thr286), Boster Bio, #EKC2366).
