Figure 12. Aromatase+ cells in the CMM and HP.
(a) 60× stitched single z-image of a sagittal section from the caudal medial telencephalon (CMM) stained for aromatase (green) and NeuN (magenta; only the fluorescent signal for aromatase is shown). (b) 60× single z-image of a hippocampus sectioned in the sagittal plane stained for aromatase.(c–e) Cropped, zoomed-in images of area surrounded by white dashed lines in dorsal CMM in a. White arrows show examples of aromatase+ cells that are negative for NeuN at the edge of the tissue. White arrow heads point to aromatase+ neurons positive for NeuN. (f–g) Cropped, zoomed-in images of area surrounded by white dashed lines in ventralnidopallium. White arrows show examples of aromatase+ cells that are negative for NeuN at the edge of the tissue. White arrow heads point to aromatase+ neurons positive for NeuN. (h–i), Zoom-in image of dotted-square in b. White arrow indicates neurons aligning the lateral ventricle.
