Fig. 4. ARG1+ microglia contain more inclusions than ARG1 microglia in the BF of P13 YARG mice.

a, Representative transmission electron microscopy images showing the ultrastructure of ARG1 and ARG1+ microglia from P13 YARG female brains in the BF/vStr. b,c, Quantitative analysis of intracellular features (b) and intracellular relationships (c; n = 3 female animals); total inclusions, P = 0.0283; empty inclusions, P = 0.0454. d, In the WT P28 BF/vStr, ARG1+ microglia are in close proximity to cholinergic neurons, as detected with an antibody to p75NTR (n = 3). Scale bars, 5 μm. The yellow square indicates the location of the corresponding images below; cyan, axon terminals; red, inclusion with content; orange, empty inclusion; green, mitochondria; blue, holy mitochondria; purple, secondary lysosome; N, neuron; asterisk, endoplasmic reticulum; blue line, cell membrane; orange line, nuclear membrane. Data are shown as mean ± s.e.m. Statistically significant differences were determined by paired two-sided t-tests (for total inclusions, total inclusion with content, inclusion with axon terminal, empty inclusion, endoplasmic reticulum, contact with neuron and contact with axon terminal) or two-sided Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test (for contact with cleft); *P ≤ 0.05.
