Distribution of cyp11a1 (P450SCC), 3β-hsd, and cyp17 transcripts in the brain of adult zebrafish. (Reproduced from Diotel et al., 2011a with the kind permission of John Wiley & Sons Ltd.). Cyp11a1, 3β-hsd, cyp17, and cyp19a1b mRNAs were detected with antisense probes at the junction between the olfactory bulbs and the telencephalon (A–D), in the ventral nucleus of the ventral telencephalic area (E–H), in the posterior part of the preoptic area (I–L), in the ventral zone of the periventricular hypothalamus (M–P), in the nucleus of the recessus posterioris (Q–T), and in the cerebellum (U–X). Note that in (A–H) and (M–P), hybridization was performed on parallel sections of the same brain. Ce, cerebellum; Hv, ventral zone of the periventricular hypothalamus; OB, olfactory bulbs; PPp, posterior part of the preoptic area; PR, posterior recess; Vv, ventral nucleus of the ventral telencephalic area. Scale bars: 80 μm in A, B, C, D, I, K, M, N, O, and P; 40 μm in J, L, U, V, W, and X; 20 μm in E, F, G, and H.
