Figure 3.

Immunohistochemical markers primarily associated with MGE-derived interneurons. A, B, Representative images illustrating the coexpression of GFP with PV (i), SOM (ii), nNOS (iii), and reelin (iv) in the Nkx2-1Cre:RCE (A) and GAD65-GFP (B) lines. The filled arrowheads indicate interneurons coexpressing GFP and the indicated marker. C, Histogram showing the contribution of GFP+ cells from Nkx2-1Cre:RCE (warm colors) and GAD65-GFP (cool colors) lines to the populations of PV, SOM, nNOS, and reelin immunolabeled interneurons in CA1 [n = 135, 150, 990, and 295, respectively, in the Nkx2-1Cre:RCE. Note that group data reported for GFP+/nNOS+ cells in Nkx2-1:RCE were previously reported by Tricoire et al. (2010); n = 236, 505, 385, and 901, respectively, in the GAD65-GFP line]. D, Number of cells coexpressing GFP with PV, SOM, nNOS, and reelin in the Nkx2-1Cre:RCE line presented as a percentage of the total number of GFP+ cells (n = 395, 417, 1992, and 504, respectively, in the Nkx2-1Cre:RCE). Scale bar: 25 μm.
