Fig. 1From: Neuroglia in the autistic brain: evidence from a preclinical modelEffect of prenatal VPA exposure on animals’ behavior. Schematic representation of the experimental design (a). Assessment of the autistic-like phenotype in prenatally VPA-exposed rats through reduced isolation-induced USV emission at PND 13 (b), sociability in the three-chamber test at PND 35 (c), and induced stereotypic behavior in the hole-board test at PND 90 (d) (Veh n = 5, VPA n = 5). Data represent mean ± SEM. Statistical analysis was performed by t test (*p < 0.05 vs Veh group)Back to article page
