Selective expression of cKit in striatal parvalbumin interneurons of non-human primate brain. (A) Immunostaining of parvalbumin (PV) interneurons (green) and cKit receptor (magenta) in the putamen (top) and CTX (bottom) of the Macaca fascicularis brain. Insets show magnified images of fields demarcated by dotted lines. (B) Quantification analysis of PV-positive and cKit-positive co-labelling is presented as circle plots. Upper row, PV-positive cells expressing cKit in caudate (N = 3), putamen (N = 3) and CTX (N = 4). Lower row, cKit-positive cells expressing PV in caudate, putamen and CTX. Note the co-expression of PV and cKit in the putamen. In the CTX, PV-positive and cKit-positive cells are distinct neurons.
