Table 3. Density of Tbr2+ cells per 2500 mm2 in dense inner band and diffuse outer band.
Macaque age | Total Tbr2+ cells counted | Density of dense inner band | Density of diffuse outer band |
E50 | 286 | 32 | NA |
E65 | 784 | 25 | 12 |
E80 | 322 | 21 | 15 |
E100 | 157 | 13 | 5 |
Density measurements are average number of Tbr2+ cells in the dense inner band and diffuse outer band counted in at least three 2500 µm2 regions of interest at each age in each species. Bands were identified by the pattern of Tbr2 immunoreactivity.
