Figure 4.
Galectin-1 is preferentially expressed in somatostatin-positive interneurons. Photomicrographs of galectin-1 (Lgals1) expression in normal adult mouse cortex and counterstaining with interneuron markers. (A) Immunostaining of galectin-1 (red) and somatostatin (green) shows frequent colocalization. (B) Immunostaining of galectin-1 (red) and parvalbumin (green) shows rare colocalization. Quantification of colocalization is shown in the barplot to the right of each figure (±s.e.m.). Scale bar: 20 μm.
