Lentivirus-labeled SVZ-derived cells in the damaged striatum 6 weeks after stroke express CR. A, Self-inactivating lentiviruses expressing GFP were injected into the SVZ 1 d before inducing stroke and GFP/CR double immunostaining was performed 6 weeks after stroke showing that most GFP-labeled cells in the damaged striatum express CR. B–G, Higher magnification of GFP⁺/CR⁺ cells in A (arrows). Note that one GFP⁺ cell in E lightly expresses CR protein. H–J, Photomicrographs of A GFP⁺/GFAP⁺ cell (arrow in J) in the SVZ 6 weeks after stroke. K–O, Photomicrographs of GFP⁺/Dcx⁺ cells in the SVZ (arrow in M) and RMS (arrow in O) 6 weeks after stroke. Scale bars: A, 100 μm; (in B) B–O, 10 μm.
