Bmal1 deficiency affects the number of newly developed neurons reaching the olfactory bulb within 4 days. Representative photomicrographs and quantification of BrdU-immunopositive cells (arrows) in the olfactory bulb of Bmal1+/+ mice (+/+) and Bmal1−/− mice (-/-). BrdU immunoreaction (brown precipitate) and cresyl violet staining (blue) in (a) granule cell layer (b) glomerular layer. Immunofluorescence for BrdU and DCX, as a marker of newly developed neurons, and quantification of DCX+/BrdU+ cell as percentage of total BrdU+ cells in (c) granule cell layer, (d) glomerular layer, arrowheads indicate DCX+ cells, glomeruli are indicated by circles. *P < 0.05, n = 4 mice per genotype. Scale bars = 50 µm
