Primo Vascular System in the Subarachnoid Space of a Mouse Brain
Figure 2
(a) Nuclei distribution in the primo vessel in the falx cerebri stained with DAPI. The dark neighboring background is the sagittal sinus. The specimen is the dotted box area of Figure 1(d). (b) F-actin distribution in the same specimen stained with phalloidin. (c) Confocal laser scanning microscope image of the same specimen. The left column shows a longitudinal section, which reveals rod-shaped nuclei. The bottom panel shows a transversal section of the primo vessel, which reveals multiple channels ⓧ. These two features are in agreement with data obtained from rabbit and rat brains.
