Expression of ELOVL4 in the hypothalamus and midbrain. (A) Extensive ELOVL4 labeling is present in the hypothalamus (HY). Prominent labeling is seen in the lateral preoptic area (LPO), lateral mammilary nucleus (LM), zona incerta (ZI), and in parts of the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA). TH, Thalamus; opt, optic tract. (B) Labeling for ELOVL4 in the midbrain is widespread but varies among nuclei. Prominent labeling is present in the superior colliculus (SC), inferior colliculus (IC), midbrain reticular nucleus (MRN), and anterior pretectal nucleus (APN). Substantia nigra (SN) shows much less labeling for ELOVL4 than other portions of the midbrain. Cerebellum (CB), cortex (CTX), and zona incerta (ZI) also are visible. Scale bars = 500 μm.
