Quantification of gold-labeled PrP in the cytosol in different populations of neurons^a

Neurons	Nucleus	Mitochondria	Cytosol
Pyramidal (n = 18)	0.12 ± 0.04	0.87 ± 0.6	0.09 ± 0.04
Hilar (n = 18)	0.14 ± 0.08	1.09 ± 0.73	0.09 ± 0.04
Granule (n = 21)	0.11 ± 0.04	0.54 ± 0.26	0
CPrP cells (n = 20)	0.845 ± 0.16	2.6 ± 0.53	23.4 ± 3.6

^a Gold particles were quantified over an area of the cytosol that was free of organelles. To assess background labeling, gold particles were quantified over the area of mitochondria and nucleus (gold per square micrometer). Results are presented as mean ± SEM.
