Knockdown of NPY abolishes the effects of inhibited miR-124-5p on hippocampal damages of depressed rats. a HE staining of hippocampal lesions of rats after inhibition of both miR-124-5p and NPY (n = 6); b ELISA of NE, 5-HT and DA expression in hippocampal tissues of rats after inhibition of both miR-124-5p and NPY (n = 6); C. Effect of inhibited NPY and suppressed miR-124-5p on SOD, MDA and GSH concentration in serum (n = 10); D. Effect of inhibited NPY and suppressed miR-124-5p on IL-1β, TNF-α and NO concentration in serum (n = 10). Comparisons between two groups were tested by t test
