Importance of neonatal immunoglobulin transfer for hippocampal development and behaviour in the newborn pig - Fig 1

<p><b>A) The left hippocampus of the piglet after dissection. Scale bar– 1.5 cm. B) Immunostaining of the subiculum of piglets. Synaptopodin- positive punctae (red) and synaptophysin- positive punctae (green). Scale bar– 100 μm. C) The density of stained regions for the synaptic proteins, synaptophysin (SPhys) and synaptopodin (SPod), in the hippocampus of piglets as analysed with immunohistochemistry. D)The colocalisation coefficients M1 and M2 of synaptophysin-positive and synaptopodin-positive puncta in the hippocampus of piglets as analysed with immunohistochemistry.</b> Unsuckled newborn piglets (NB, n = 6) and newborn piglets fed with either an infant formula (IF, n = 6), bovine colostrum (BC, n = 6), an infant formula + i.v. infusion of sow serum (IF+IGLD, n = 6), an infant formula + i.v. infusion of porcine immunoglobulins (IF+IGHD, n = 6), or swine colostrum (SC, n = 6). Data are presented as mean±SD. Small letters given with result bars describe significant differences when p<0.05.</p
