Co-localization of MTS15, FSP1, aP2, and LipidTox in thymus of
FoxN1Cre;ROSA26RstoplacZ mice. A, thymic cryosections of
6-month-old FoxN1Cre; ROSA26RstoplacZ labeled with MTS15
(fibroblast marker), β-galactosidase (red), and
LipidTox (green). The confocal Z-stack image reconstruction in
three-dimensional (3D) orientation depicts the presence of
LipidTox-stained cells within the thymic subcapsule. The merge
ofβ-galactosidase (red) and MTS15 (blue) appears as
cyan cells enveloping the large unilocular lipid vacuole. B, the
subcapsular region of thymus showing co-localization of β-galactosidase
(red), FSP1 (blue), and aP2 (green).
