From: Study of the nitric oxide system in the rat cerebellum during aging
Microphotographies of NADPH-diaphorase activity in the cortex and nuclei of rat cerebellum rostro-caudal sections. Panels A, C and E: adult rat. Panels B, D and F: old rat. In adult and aged animals an uniform but diffuse mark is widely spread within the cerebellar cortex layers (A-D) and the three cerebellar nuclei: fastigial (fg), interposed (ip), and dentate (dt), although the intensity of the staining is higher in the aged animals (B, D). g: granular layer; m: molecular layer; p: Purkinje cells layer; wm: white matter. Scale bars: A, B, E and F, 200 μm; C and D, 100 μm.
