Fig. 2. Expression of netrin 1 and Dcc by oligodendrocytes in vitro.
(A,A') Netrin 1 protein (green) on the surface of
myelin-like membrane sheets of non-permeabilized mature rat oligodendrocytes
in culture. Recombinant netrin 1, labeled using a Myc epitope tag,
preferentially localizes to branches formed by the cells (arrow).
(B,B') Dcc (green) distributed along oligodendrocyte
processes and at puncta along the edge of Mbp-immunopositive (red) myelin-like
membrane sheets (arrow). A,B, 40x0.5 n.a. objective. Scale bars: 40
µm in A'; 20 µm in B'.
