Sensory Deprivation during Early Postnatal Period Alters the Density of Interneurons in the Mouse Prefrontal Cortex

Figure 2

Localization of interneuron in the mouse PFC. Representative light micrograph showing laminar distribution of PV (a), CB (b), and CR (c) neurons in the PL. (a) PV neurons are located in L2/3 and L5/6. (b) CB neurons are mainly located in L2/3 and L5/6. The principal neurons in L2 are weakly immunopositive to CB. (c) CR neurons are mainly located in L2/3. (A)–(C) Higher magnification images of interneurons in the PL. Scale bars = 200 μm in (c) (applies to (a)–(c)); 50 μm in (C) (applies to (A)–(C)).
