Immunohistochemical labeling of the fox olfactory limbus (OL) with anti-microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP-2). (A) Immunostaining with anti-MAP-2 results in the strong and uniform immunolabeling of glomeruli (Gl) and the external plexiform layer (EPL) of the main olfactory bulb (MOB). (B) A higher magnification view of the rostral part of the OL shows the staining of atypical Gl formations (open triangles), in addition to a patch of the nervous formation that remains unstained (*). (C) Anti-MAP-2 immunostained serial sections were counterstained with hematoxylin, confirming that the unlabeled area corresponds to an area of the macroglomerular complex that is rich in neuronal bodies (arrowheads) and receives the innervation from Ulex europaeus agglutinin-positive fibers. AOB, accessory olfactory bulb; AON, anterior olfactory nucleus; EPL, external plexiform layer; FL, front lobe of the telencephalon; Gl, glomeruli; MOB, main olfactory bulb; OL, olfactory limbus. Scale bars: (A): 1 mm. (B): 250 μm. (C): 100 μm.
