Confocal laser scanning double-immunofluorescence microscopy for VGLUT2 or VGLUT1 and the synaptic vesicle nerve terminal marker synaptophysin or the dendritic marker MAP-2. False color micrographs of confocal images from double immunofluorescence for VGLUT2 or VGLUT1 (green) and synaptophysin and microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP2) (red) in the spinal dorsal horn. VGLUT2 and VGLUT1 staining coincide with staining for synaptophysin and are absent from neuronal dendrites. Note the presence of VGLUT2 staining in perisomatic and peridendritic synapses. Scale bar, 10 μm.
