Astrocyte morphology. (A) Two anti-GFAP positive cells are demonstrated. Cell 1 shows anti-GFAP immunoreactivity within the entire perinuclear space, which allows for clear definition of the astrocytic cell body. Cell 2 shows anti-GFAP immunoreactivity at just one site of the cell body, making it difficult to clearly delineate the astrocyte cell body (highlighted by arrowheads). Scale bar = 20 µm (center), 10 µm (left, right). (B) Expression of the mitochondrial protein TSPO (red) in eGFP-expressing astrocytes. Adopted from [48]. Scale-bar = 25 µm. Abbreviations: glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), translocator protein (TSPO), enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP).
