Figure 5. Proliferation of cortical DCX+ neuroblasts after CCI injury.

Figure 5

Confocal images show colocalization of both DCX+ (red) and BrdU+ (green) cells in the corpus callosum (cc) (A), in addition to the SVZ (B) at 1 dpi. DCX+/BrdU+ cells are seen in cortical areas at 3 dpi (C, cell indicated by arrow is shown in higher magnification in D). We observed no colocalization of BrdU and DCX at 7 dpi in the cortex (E); note the presence of clusters (or chains) of DCX+ cells (F) at 7 dpi. Scale bar=50 μm (A, C and E) and 20 μm (B, D and F). (G) Quantification of DCX+/BrdU+ cells after CCI or sham injury (mean±S.E.M., n=3–6). *P<0.05, by two-tailed Student's t test comparing sham and CCI at 3 dpi.
