Phenotype of transplanted cells into the SVZ (a–c) brain map showing the localization of hNSC (a), T-IhNSC (b), and v-IhNSC (c) immunoreactive for GFAP, Nestin, and Ki67 in the SVZ of transplanted rats. d–i huN+/GFAP+ cells in rats transplanted with hNSC (d, confocal magnification g), T-IhNSC (e, confocal magnification h) and v-IhNSC (f, confocal magnification i). j–l huN+/huNestin+ cells in rats transplanted with hNSC (j), T-IhNSC (k), and v-IhNSC (l). huN+/Ki67+ cells (hNSC M, T-IhNSC N, and v-IhNSC O). Total nuclei are shown by DAPI staining (blue). p Chart showing the quantification of GFAP+, huNestin+, Ki67+ cells over total huN+ nuclei. Scale bars, in d–f 75 μm, in g, m, i 19 μm, in h, j, k, l, n 15 μm (inset 10 μm) and in o 4 μm.
