Expression of ELOVL4 in development of the basal ganglia. (A) The developing basal ganglia at E18 show very high levels of ELOVL4 expression, particularly in the periventricular zone (PVZ) adjacent to the lateral ventricle (VL). Caudoputamen (CP), nucleus accumbens (ACB), and olfactory tubercle (OT) are shown. (B). Labeling for ELOVL4 in the basal ganglia decreases substantially by P10. (C) The basal ganglia maintain low levels of ELOVL4 expression at P20. (D) At P60, the basal ganglia maintain relatively low levels of ELOVL4 with sparsely distributed ELOVL4-labeled cells. Labeling for ELOVL4 is also evident in the subventricular zone (SVZ). HPF, hippocampal formation; HY, hypothalamus; PIR, piriform cortex; cc, corpus callosum; fo, fornix; ic, internal capsule. Scale bars = 500 μm.
