FIGURE 3

Expression of NMDA receptors (GluN1) and apposed puncta expressing VGLUT1 and GAD67 on DCX immunoreactive cells. (A) Confocal microphotographs of the temporal cortex showing the expression of GluN1 in small type I (A1) and larger type I DCX + cells (A2). (B) DCX immunoreactive type II cell (green) in the occipital cortex layer II showing puncta expressing the excitatory marker VGLUT1 (red) apposed to its soma and dendrite (arrows). (C) DCX immunoreactive type II cell (green) in the temporal cortex layer II. Note the presence of GAD67 expressing puncta (red) apposed to its soma and dendrite (arrows). (A1) Is a single confocal plane, (A2,B,C) are 2D projections of 4 (A2) 9 (B) and 12 (C) consecutive confocal stacks (0.38 μm apart). Scale bar: 10 μm for (A,B4,B5,C4,C5); 40 μm for (B1–3,C1–3). All confocal images in this figure were from neurosurgical samples.
