Annotation description: | Fig.7: Immunoperoxidase electron microscopical localisation of Caldendrin in rat cerebral cortex. In the parietal cortex (A-C) cytoplasmic labeling was frequently observed in large to small dendritic pro files (d in A) throughout the cortical layers (see light microscopical results). In synaptic areas, caldendrin immunoreactivity in different cortical layers was exclusively localised postsynaptically (see arrows) in asymmetrical glutamatergic synapses. Labeled synapses (arrows) were either large, complex synapses (A and B), or smaller spine synapses (C). Note that immunopositive synapses are found in close neighbourhood together with unlabeled synapses of the same morphological type (marked by asterisks). (D) In immunopositive putative interneuron dendrites (receiving several asymmetrical synapses) the DAB reaction product displayed - in contrast to all other examples shown-no tendency of being distributed toward the postsynaptic densities asterisks). (E) Occasionally, two synapses on the same target structure and in close neighbourhood were observed to be immunopositive and immunonegative, respectively, for caldendrin. The survey micrograph (G) of caldendrin-IR in the cortex shows that in close neighbourhood to the relatively rarely occurring immunopositive synapses (arrow) many immunonegative synapses (asterisks) can be found. The appearance (staining) of postsynaptic densities in immunonegative synapses (A, B, D, E, G) was similar when comparing them to material obtained from negative controls, which were not incubated with the primary antibody (F). |
