  • This image shows corticofugal axons (green) projecting from layer 5 of the mouse primary visual cortex to the dorsal striatum. Layer 5 projections from primary visual, primary somatosensory, primary motor, and ventromedial orbitofrontal cortex all have terminal fields within the striatum, among other common targets. Blue is DAPi nuclear stain.

  • A group of midbrain neurons expressing acetylcholine (blue) are made to express another type of neurotransmitter, glutamate (green), using adeno-associated virus as a gene delivery platform. The neurons targeted by the virus also express a red fluorescent protein for identification and thus appear a light-yellow color (green plus red and blue).

  • This image shows a retinal section from a mouse in which a subset of amacrine cells was labeled with an antibody against the transcription factor Meis 2 (green), which was identified in a single-cell RNA sequencing expression screen that characterized >60 amacrine cell types. The section was also stained to mark two classes of inhibitory neurons, GABAergic (magenta) and glycinergic (cyan).
