Fig. 8.

A is micrograph of whole brain stained with Black gold II. The corpus callosum (cc), somatosensory cortex (sc) and retrosplenial cortex (rc) are labelled. These were the major regions analysed for densitometry. B shows Black gold II histochemistry. Panels show demyelination in the corpus callosum at different magnifications (low magnification – first row; high magnification – second row), deep layers of the somatosensory cortex and the retrosplenial cortex in the vanadium administered group. Note that MIMO2 at 10 mg/kg showed a level of myelin recovery. Scale bar 200 μm (note – scale bar is same across the rows).
