Colocalization of CB1R and CCK in a subset of BNC axons. A and B) CB1R+ axons (red) and CCK+ axons (green) in the neuropil of the Bmg (A) and the lateral nucleus (B). Yellow indicates colocalization of CB1R with CCK. C and D) CB1R+ axons (green) and CCK+ axons (red) in Bmg (C) and the lateral nucleus (D) as seen in z-stacks of seven 1-μm-thick optical sections (total thickness of 7 μm for each image). Neuronal somata (and glial cells) are stained blue using a fluorescent Nissl stain. Yellow indicates colocalization of CB1R with CCK. Large neuronal somata representing presumptive PNs (arrows) are contacted by basket-like plexuses of CB1R+, CCK+, and CB1R+/CCK+ axon terminals. Similar terminals are also seen in the neuropil. Scale bar in D = 5 μm (A-C are at the same magnification).
