Figure 2. SLC7A10 is enriched in astrocytes.

Figure 2

No beta-galactosidase expression (red) is co-localized with the neuronal nuclear marker NeuN (green) in the spinal cord (a, SC), brainstem (b, BS), cerebellum (c, CBM), cortex (d, CTX), or hippocampus (e, HIPP) of Slc7a10+/− mice. GCL, granule cell layer; CC, corpus callosum. No beta-galactosidase expression (red) is co-localized with oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2 (OLIG2), an oligodendrocyte marker (green) in the spinal cord (f, SC), brainstem (f, BS), cerebellum (f, CBM), cortex (i, CTX), or hippocampus (j, HIPP). All beta-galactosidase-positive cells in the brainstem (k) appear to be astrocytes, as identified by staining for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) (l,n). Representative beta-galactosidase-positive cells in the spinal cord co-stained for GFAP are shown in o-b. Scale bars, 50 μm (aj), 20 μm (k–v).
