Figure 6

Embryonic origin of nNOS+ hippocampal interneurons. (A) Images illustrating the coexpression of GFP and nNOS in the Nkx2.1Cre:RCE (left) and GAD65-GFP (right) mouse lines. Scale bar: 25 μm. (B) Nkx2.1 is necessary for the specification of nNOS+ interneurons. Top, In situ hybridization against Lhx6 transcripts on hippocampus of control (left) and mutant (right) P15 mice after conditional loss of Nkx2.1 function at E10.5. Scale bar: 200 μm. Bottom, Immunohistochemical expression patterns of nNOS in CA1 of control and mutant mice. Scale bar: 50 μm. Adapted from Tricoire et al. (2010, 2011).
