Fig. 7. Altogether four distinct spatio-molecular domains identified within the mouse STN defined by combinatorial expression patterns.

ar Combinatorial FISH analysis comparing mRNAs towards each other allows distinction into STNa/STNb/STNc/STNds domains based on detection of several mRNAs. Three levels along the antero-posterior axis analyzed for complete revelation across the STN structure. mRNAs analyzed, in order presented: a Pitx2/Vglut2; b Pitx2/Calb2; c Pitx2/Baiap3; d Htr2c/Baiap3; e Kcnab3/Baiap3; f Col24a1/Kcnab3; g Pitx2/Glra3; h Pitx2/Tac1; i Htr2c/Tac1; j Pitx2/Gad1; k Pitx2/Htr2c; l Htr2c/Nxph1; m Htr2c/Nxph4; n Nxph1/Nxph4; o Pitx2/Col24a1; p Pvalb/Pitx2; q Pvalb/Col24a1; r Tac1/Calb2 presented in green/red with corresponding color of arrows and with white arrow heads representing co-localization. Scale bar 200 µm and 125 µm (insets). Abbreviations: dsSTN, dorsal strip of STN; FISH, fluorescent in situ hybridization; STN, Subthalamic nucleus; PSTN, Parasubthalamic nucleus; ZI, Zona incerta.
