Figure 1. (A) Strong CD24 expression in the olfactory bulb (especially the glomerular layer and rostral migratory stream). (B) In the entire lining of the ventricular zone at the level of the striatum, CD24 is present. (C) CD24 protein is observed the Reticular nucleus of the thalamus (RT). (D) At the level of the thalamus, strong CD24 expression is seen in the amygdala and the lateral posterior thalamic nucleus (mediocaudal part; LPMC). (E) The LPMC expression is maintained into the midbrain, where there is also very strong staining in the zonal layer and weaker expression in the ventral layers of the superior colliculus (SC). (F) The SC expression of CD24 is maintained throughout the midbrain. There is also CD24 staining surrounding the medial geniculate nucleus (MG). (G) Robust expression in the red nucleus. (H) In the hindbrain, there is strong expression in the nucleus of lateral lemniscus (NLL) and the superior olivary complex (SOC). (I-L) CD24 expression on sections of brain from the Cd24-/- mouse, demonstrating a lack of protein labelling at all levels of the CNS. Numbers on the periphery represent the plane of the coronal section relative to bregma. Scale bar in panel D represents 3mm in images A-D and I-L, and 1.5mm for images E-H.
