Figure 4From: Expression of the neuroprotective slow Wallerian degeneration (WldS) gene in non-neuronal tissuesWldS protein expression did not affect histopathology of non-neuronal organs. H & E staining of tissues showed no obvious qualitative differences between wild type (left), heterozygous (data not shown) or homozygous WldSmice (right) for liver (A), kidney (B), and spleen (C). The selected organs shown represent non-neuronal organs with low (liver), medium (kidney) and high (spleen) levels of WldS protein expression. Scale bar = 100 μm (A&B), 200 μm (C).Back to article page
