Aromatase DAB immunoreactivity in the rhesus monkey temporal neocortex. (A) Low magnification overview of aromatase distribution in the temporal neocortex (subject 29357). (B–G) Details of the aromatase distribution in the different layers of the temporal neocortex (subject 29357). (B) Aromatase immunoreactive cell in layer I. (C) Detail of several neurons expressing aromatase in layer II. (D) Aromatase immunoreactivity in pyramidal cells of layer III. The aromatase immunostaining is localized both in the perikarion and in main dendrites (arrowhead). (E) Detail of an aromatase immunoreactive fiber in layer IV ( arrowheads). (F) Layer V showing pyramidal cells intensely immunoreactive for aromatase specially in the perikaryon (arrowhead). (G) Detail of aromatase immunoreactive neurons in layer VI. Some neurons show high level of aromatase immunostaining (arrow), whereas other are slightly immunoreactive (arrowhead). Scale bars in A: 250 μm; B: 25 μm; G: 25 μm (for C–G).
