Figure Lengend Snippet: IGF1R is not expressed by migrating and hypothalamic GnRH neurons. ( A , B ) Coronal sections of E14.5 mouse embryo heads at the VNO level were immunolabeled for IGF1R (green) and GnRH (red) to reveal GnRH neurons. The high magnification of the squared box area is shown in ( B ). Empty arrowheads indicate examples of GnRH-positive cells that are in close contact with IGF1R-positive axons but do not express IGF1R themselves. ( C , D ) Coronal sections of E14.5 mouse embryo heads at the CP level were immunolabeled for IGF1R (green) and GnRH (red) to reveal GnRH neurons. The high magnification of the squared box area is shown in ( D ). Empty arrowheads indicate examples of GnRH-positive cells that are in close contact with IGF1R-positive axons but do not express IGF1R themselves. ( E – H ) Coronal sections of E14.5 ( E , F ) and E18.5 ( G , H ) mouse embryo heads at the MPOA level were immunolabeled for IGF1R (green) and GnRH (red) to reveal GnRH neurons. The high magnification of the squared box area is shown in ( F ). Empty arrowheads indicate examples of GnRH-positive cells that do not express IGF1R. Note the high expression of IGFR in the OVLT area. Single-channel images are shown beside each panel. Abbreviations: VNO, vomeronasal organ; OE, olfactory epithelium; OB, olfactory bulb; and MPOA, medial preoptic area. Scale bars: 250 μm ( A , C , E , G ) and 50 μm ( B , D , F , H ).
