Coronal sections showing MCP-IR in cortical and prosencephalic structures of the rat CNS. A, MCP-IR in the cingular cortex. The six cortical layers are defined at theleft, and the asterisk marks the white matter; the arrowheads point to the pial surface.B, Section through the rostroventral portions of the rat’s brain showing intense MCP-IR in the piriform cortex and the olfactory tubercle (Tu). The asteriskindicates the heterogeneous distribution of MCP-IR in the Tu. Thearrowheads point to the pyramidal layer of the piriform cortex. C, MCP-IR in the hippocampal formation. Note the dense MCP-IR in the granule cells of the dentate gyrus and in the pyramidal cells in fields CA1–3 of Ammon’s horn. The area inbrackets in CA1 is shown at a higher magnification inD. E, Hippocampal formation in a control section incubated with preimmune serum as primary antibody.F, Intense MCP-IR in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis.
