Distribution of transplanted GFP-NRP cells in various brain regions. Table summarizes the regions in the brain where GFP-NRP cells were identified 3, 7, and 14 days after transplantation into the SVZa of postnatal day 1 Sprague–Dawley rats. The transplanted cells were identified immunohistochemically by using an antibody against GFP and a fluorescein-conjugated secondary antibody. NRP cells were identified in the hippocampus only in animal 2 (*) presumably caused by a leakage of some transplanted GFP-NRP cells into the lateral ventricle.
