Characterization of the vz and cp dissociates by immunocytochemistry

Region % Total nestin+ % Total TUJ1+ % Nestin+ only % TUJ1+ only % Both
vz 76.7 55.7  ± 2.4 45.0  ± 5.2 24.0 31.7
cp 27.6 82.7  ± 5.0 17.3  ± 4.1 72.4 10.3

After dissociation, the two populations were double labeled with anti-nestin and TUJ1 antibodies. Approximately half of vz cells express nestin only (45.0%), indicating that they are precursor cells. Neurons identified by TUJ1 staining comprise 55.7% of the vz population. The majority of cp cells were neurons (82.7%), and only 17.3% of the cp cells stained for nestin only. Values are means ± SEM;n = 7.
