Figure 8. AP-labeled processes in the hippocampus in an adult NFL-IRES-CreER;Z/AP brain.
A–L, Contiguous AP-labeled processes span eleven serial 300 um sections within the hippocampus. All of the AP labeled processes within the two hippocampi have been traced, but AP-labeled neurons outside of the hippocampus are not shown. M, anterior hippocampus corresponding to the boxed region in B shows unilateral AP-labeling. Some residual endogenous alkaline phosphatase activity is seen in the vasculature and choroid plexus. The cell body of this neuron has not been localized. N,O, Two images from a Z-stack of the region bounded by the pair of black corner marks in M. The processes of the AP-labeled neuron form a finely spaced meshwork near the surface of the molecular layer of the dentate gyrus. Scale bars: 0.5 mm in M, 0.2 mm in O.
