As for PSA-NCAM levels, ANOVA yielded a nearly significant NH effect (F(1,36) = 4.1; p = 0.051; Figure 3 E,F) in the PFC, and a significant NH effect on PSA-NCAM in ACg (F(1,36) = 6.0, p < 0.02; Figure 4 E,F), indicating that NH treatment generally increased the PSA-NCAM levels in both cortical areas (see Duncan’s tests in Figure 3 F and Figure 4 F). 3.6.
