Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 as Predictor of Body Mass Index and Dentate Gyrus Neurogenesis: Neuroplasticity and the Metabolic Milieu

Figure 1

Doublecortin staining of neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. In (a), we present the dentate gyrus (DG) of the left hippocampus at 2x magnification (see scale) and (b) is at 40x magnification of the dentate gyrus (see scale). Doublecortin stained neurons can be seen in red extending from the subgranular zone (SGZ) into the granule cell layer (GCL) with staining of tertiary dendrites. DG is dentate gyrus. SGZ is subgranular zone. HS is hippocampal sulcus. All sections are taken from the anterior hippocampus.
