From: NG2 cells, a new trail for Alzheimer’s disease mechanisms?
Microscopic images of NG2 positive cells. A-C show low magnification pictures of brain tissue with (A) resting NG2 cells, (B) reactive NG2 cells and (C) granular NG2 (arrowhead) as well as pericytes (arrow). D-F show higher magnification images of a resting NG2 cell (D), reactive NG2 cell (E), granular NG2 (F), G-H show images of reactive NG2 cells (G) and granular NG2 (H) (brown) adjacent to Aβ plaque (purple), (I) shows Aβ deposits in the investigated hippocampal molecular layer (ML) of an AD patient. Scale bar A-C =150 μm, D-F=10 μm, G, H=25 μm and I=10 μm.
