  1. Immunohistochemical Analysis was performed by confocal microscopy studies of double or triple labelled sections. The distinct markers are considered to characterize the following cell types or development stages, BrdU: Thymidine analogon labelling the proliferating cells. GFAP and S100beta: Astrocytes. NeuN: Mature neurons. Pax6 and Sox2: Precursor cells. CNPase: Oligodendrocytes. Iba1 and CD68: Microglia. DCLK: Radial glia and neuronal precursor cells.
