Histopathological images in cerebellum of PSP-C patients. An example photograph for analysis of Purkinje cell loss (A). We use cerebellar vermis section stained with hematoxylin-eosin and drew 3 mm-length lines in the cerebellar Purkinje cell layers. Purkinje cells are indicated with arrows (A, arrows). Immunohistochemistry for CP13 reveals pretangles and tau-positive threads in dentate nucleus (B), coiled bodies in cerebellar white matter (C), and pretangles in Purkinje cell layer (D, arrow, inset). A: hematoxylin-eosin stain; B-D: CP13 immunostain. Bars = 200 μm in A and D, 100 μm in B and C.
