GABRA5 receptor density in XRCC1 KO mice. The images show representative coronal brain sections of female control and XRCC1 KO animals stained with anti-GABRA5 antibody at the level of A the amygdala, B the dorsal hippocampus and C the ventral hippocampus. The bar plots depict the relative mean grey value (MGV) of GABRA5 in A the amygdala (Amy), B the dorsal and C ventral DG, CA1 and CA3 (dDG, dCA1, dCA3 and vDG, vCA1, vCA3, respectively) of male and female XRCC1-KO and control mice. N = 5 Con and 5 KO males, 5 Con and 5 KO females. Shown are all individual values, means ± SEM. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 based on independent Student’s two-tailed t-test
