Pattern of Zif268 expression in visual cortex of control rat. (A) Overall pattern of Zif268 expression in the right hemisphere reconstructed from 4 tangential sections. A strong and homogeneous pattern of Zif268 expression is observed throughout V1, without obvious patchiness in labeling density. (B) ISH with the sense probes yielded no signals stronger than background. The black outlines in (A) and (B) indicates the border of V1 as visualized in a tangential section stained for myelin (C). Arrows point to the same blood vessels in B and C to facilitate the correlation of the V1 border in B with the myelin pattern in C. Scale bar = 1.0 mm.
