Summary graphs showing the postnatal progression of thionin, DCX, SMI-32, Calb and Calr reactive cell types in relation to brain and body weight in NTD (A, B) and DS (C, D). Note the parallel development in the number of different cell types in relation to brain and body weight during growth in NTD (A, B) and DS (C, D). Take note that SG (dark green line) and IG (lime green line) thionin cell counts were greater in the youngest DS (C, D) compared to NTD (A, B), which decreased with brain and body weight in both groups. Note also that SG Calr (dark brown line) cell numbers were higher in the youngest DS (C, D) than NTD (A, B) cases, which decreased with body and brain weight in the former (C, D), but increased in the latter group (A, B)
