highly significantp = 0.0009
When conducting a Pearson's correlation analysis, a strong positive and highly significant relationship between SV2A protein levels, as detected by ELISA, and mRNA levels in the cerebral cortex as conducted by RT‐qPCR ( r = 0.56, p = 0.0009, n = 32) and hippocampal ( r = 0.48, p = 0.004, n = 32) homogenates were observed (Figure 5A, B ). ′′The [3H]UCB‐J binding level showed a strong positive correlation with the SV2A protein level in the cerebral cortex ( r = 0.76; p < 0.0001, n = 20), but no significant correlation was found in the hippocampus ( r = 0.35, p = 0.13, n = 20) (Figure 5C, D ).
