Fig. 5. Proliferation and neurogenesis in
6 integrin-/-
cortex. Micrographs of E14 wild-type and
6 integrin-/-
cortex sections (A,B,E-H) stained as indicated.
(C,D) Quantification of the number of PH3-positive cells in M
phase per cortex area (C; wild type: n=39 sections, three animals,
6 integrin-/-: n=50, three animals) and of the
percentages of cells dividing with horizontal, oblique or perpendicular
orientation to the ventricular surface (D; wild type: n=89 mitoses,
one animal,
6 integrin-/-: n=150, one animal) in
wild-type and
6 integrin-/- cerebral cortex. Scale bars: 100
µm.
