Photomicrograph in the DG of the hippocampus a Control group showing a normal structure of DG and normal densely packed small granular cells (arrowheads). b Acrolein-treated group showing atrophic ischaemic injury of the granular cells of the granular layer (arrows). c Quercetin nanoparticle-treated group showing normal, densely packed, and small granular cells (arrows). An increase in the thickness of the granular layer was observed. d Ameliorative group showing a decrease in ischaemic neuronal injury within granular cells of the granular layer (arrows indicate atrophic cells). e Protective group showing a significant decline in atrophic ischaemic neuronal injury within the granular cells of the granular layer (arrows represent atrophic cells). (M: molecular layer, P: polymorphic layer, G: granular layer). (X400)
