Figure 1

Micrographs at low power of Nissl stained sections from a subject with major depression (left panel) and non-psychiatric comparison subject (right panel). Arrows point to blood vessels visible in both micrographs in gray and white matter. Note the wider non-stained spaces between blood vessels and the brain parenchyma in the subject with depression. Broken lines signal the border between gray and white matter. A series of boxes in the top portion of right panel represents the sampling frames within which blood vessels segments were measured.
