Fig. 7. Absence of ectopic GFAP expression in oligodendroglial precursors of the
Olig2-ablated cortex. (A-B'') The Olig2
(CkoG) mutant mouse cortex at P14 was immunostained with
GFAP and OPC markers NG2 (A-A'') and PDGF
R (B-B''). Regions
of the superficial layers of Olig2- ablated cortices are shown.
Expression of GFAP is distinct from that of OPC markers. (C-F) Coronal
sections of control (CtrlC) and
Olig2Cko;CNPCre (CkoC) mutant cortices
at P14 were subjected to in situ hybridization labeling for Mbp (C,D)
and Gfap (E,F). Arrows indicate the cortical gray matter.
(G,H) The corpus callosum of control (CtrlC)
and Olig2 (CkoC) mutant cortices at P14 were
immunostained with antibodies against GFAP (green) and GS (red).
