a Quantification of DAGLA and DAGLB mRNA expression by RNA-sequencing of LCM-isolated human nigral DAN samples (n = 26)29. b Quantification of Dagla and Daglb mRNA expression by RNA-sequencing of LCM-isolated nigral DANs from adult mouse brains (n = 7). c Dagla and Daglb mRNA expression in the mouse dorsal striatum (DS, n = 6). The expression of Dagla and Daglb mRNAs was normalized by the expression of Th mRNAs in the nigral DANs and Bcl11b mRNAs in the SPNs. Data were presented as mean ± SEM. Unpaired t test, two-tailed, ****p < 0.0001. d RNAscope® in situ hybridization of Daglb and Th in mouse midbrain sections. Sections were counterstained with DAPI. Dashed line outlines the SNc region. Bottom panels highlight the boxed areas in the up panels. SNc: substantia nigra pars compacta. SNr: substantia nigra pars reticulata. VTA: ventral tegmental area. Scale bars: 100 μm (left) and 20 μm (right). More than five independent experiments were performed.
