Figure 2. Hypothalamic neurospheres express multi-potency, neuronal and astrocytes markers.

Figure 2

Immuno-characterization of floating hypothalamic neurospheres after 7-DIV and 14-DIV in culture with growing factors. Images of hypothalamic neurospheres expressing multi-potency marker SOX2 (Ai and Aii); neural progenitor marker Musashi-1 (Bi and Bii); neuronal marker β-III-Tubulin (TUJ) (Ci and Cii) but not mature neuronal marker NeuN (Di and Dii). Hypothalamic neurospheres are also positive for astrocytes marker GFAP (Ei and Eii). DAPI, nuclear staining. DIV, days in vitro.
