Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Population doublings (PD). Data were obtained from three independent experiments (n=8). ( B ) Clonogenicity assay. Results were obtained from two independent experiments. The number inside the bars indicated the number of microplate wells analyszed (mean ± SEM). ( C ) Differentiation assay. Representative images of immunofluorescence of freshly sorted iNB cells cultured in oligodendrocyte, astrocyte, or neuronal differentiation medium, and stained for NG2 and CNPase, GFAP and CD133 or βIII-Tubulin and doublecortin (DCX) expressions, respectively. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 (Mann-Whitney U-test). Scale bar: 20 µm. ( D ) EGFP-positive s-iNB were isolated from β−actin:eGFP mice and transplanted unilaterally at three injection points at proximity of the dSVZ/RMS of recipient C57Bl/6 J mice. Transplanted brains were analyszed 5 weeks later by immunostaining. ( a ) Detection of eGFP + cells in the granule cell layer and the external cell layer of the olfactory bulb of a mouse transplanted. (a1–a2) a2 high magnification of the inset (dotted line in a) showing eGFP + NeuN + cells (white arrows). ( b–c ) Detection of eGFP + GFAP + DCX + cells (yellow arrows) and eGFP +GFAP + (white arrows) in the dorsal ( b2 ) and lateral ( c2 ) SVZ. GCL:granule cell layer, EPL: external plexiform layer, GL: glomerular layer, lSVZ: lateral SVZ, dSVZ: dorsal SVZ, Scale bars = 40 µm or 100 µm.
