Neuroblasts in the SVZ and RMS of the adult rhesus monkey brain co-express Dcx and PSA-NCAM. (A) Photograph of the adult rhesus monkey brain (bottom view) showing the olfactory tract and OB. (B) The brain was cut coronally into 1.0–2.0 cm slabs. (C) DAPI staining of the coronal section shows the RMS. (D) The same section as C, double-immunostained for Dcx and PSA-NCAM. (E-I) Higher magnification of the boxed areas in D showing that the vast majority of Dcx+ cells express PSA-NCAM and vice versa. (J-L) Higher magnification of boxed areas in E, F and I. (M) Dcx/NeuN double immunostaining showing that Dcx+ cells migrate from the RMS to the anterior olfactory nucleus, which is located beneath (D). (N) Higher magnification of the boxed area in M. (O) Dcx/MCM2 double immunostaining in the coronal sections of the adult monkey SVZ. (P, Q) Higher magnification of boxed areas in O. (R-S') Higher magnification of boxed areas in P and Q. Note MCM2+/Dcx+ cells (arrows) and MCM2+ cells (arrowhead) in the SVZ. Scale bars represent 5 mm (A, B); 1 mm (C); 500 μm (D, M and O); 100 μm (in N applies to E-I, N, P and Q) and 20 μm (in J applies to J-L and R-S').
