Figure 5. TMPAP is expressed in the mouse brain and colocalizes with GABAergic marker, GAD 65/67.

Figure 5

Representative confocal images depict intense TMPAP (brown color) expression in molecular cell layer (M) and Purkinje cells (P) of cerebellum (Panel A), in substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNpr; Panel B), in red nucleus (RN; Panel C) and in oculomotor nucleus (O; Panel C). Small picture in Panel B depicts the TMPAP staining of the substantia nigra in PAP−/− mouse. TMPAP (green) was colocalized with GABAergic marker (red) in medium spiny neurons of striatum (Panels D-G, yellow color and white arrows indicating the colocalization) and in SNpr (Panels H–K). Colocalization was evident also in GABAergic neurons of hippocampus CA1 (Panels L–O). DAPI (blue color) was used as a nuclear marker. Scale bars are 500 µm in Panels A–C, and 10 µm in panels D–O.
