CALB2 expression in the brain at PCW 15. (a) CALB2 expression in the anterior thalamic region, basal ganglion, amygdala and lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC). Note the strong CALB2 expression in anterior thalamic nuclear complex (ANC), medial hypothalamic region, anterior cortical nucleus of the amygdala (CoA), inter-pallidal transient cell zone (IPTC) and layer 2 of the LEC. (b) CALB2 expression in middle thalamic region, midbrain and caudal ganglion eminence (CGE). Strong CALB2 expression is seen in the lateral dorsal nucleus (LD), ventral lateral nucleus (VL), dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (DLG), central medial nucleus (CeM) and subparafascicular nucleus (SPf) of the thalamus as well as in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and CGE. (c). CALB2 expression posterior thalamic region, midbrain and HF. Note the strong CALB2 expression in the pulvinar (Pul), medial geniculate nucleus (MG), limitans/suprageniculate nucleus (LSG), medial habenular nucleus (MHN) and the dentate gyrus (DG). (d) A Nissl-stained section adjacent to (b) showing the cytoarchitecture of the thalamic regions. It is not easy to identify the different thalamic nuclei in Nissl-stained sections. In contrast, this is much easier in the CALB2 ISH section (b). Scale bar: 800 μm in (a) for all panels.
