Fiber Tracts Anomalies in APPxPS1 Transgenic Mice Modeling Alzheimer's Disease

Figure 1

Myelin stain of the corpus callosum. On frontal sections, staining of the myelin using the gold chloride method allows to delineate the perimeter of the corpus callosum (CC) at the rostral (a) and caudal (b) levels. On the basis of axon orientation and staining intensities, adjacent fiber tracts (CB: cingulate bundle; dHC: dorsal hippocampal commissure; EC: external capsule) are clearly outlined allowing accurate visualization of the corpus callosum borders. Scale bars: 200 μm.
