Figure 11

NG2 glia forms a dense 3D network, particularly prominent on thick (30 μm) slices of the rat brain; there is no significant alteration in density and arrangement of this network if we compare control wt rats with age-matched tgHD rats. (a, b) 18-month-old wt rat; (c) 18-month-old tgHD rat. Anti-NG2. Bar (a) 50 μm and (b, c) 20 μm.
