GENSAT Confocal Picture of the Day
Wednesday June 19, 2013
Each day a different image of the mouse nervous system is featured.
GENSAT Confocal Image of the Day for Wednesday June 19, 2013. Trangenic mouse , gene=solute carrier family 18 (vesicular monoamine), member 2, age=P7, structure=Ventral striatum.
Slc18a2 is expressed in neurons in the ventral striatum. Compare this confocal image with brightfield section 7.
Structure: Ventral striatum
Age: P7
Gene: solute carrier family 18 (vesicular monoamine), member 2


The GENSAT Project at Rockefeller University is a mouse brain atlas that aims to map the expression of genes in the central nervous system of the mouse, using both in situ hybridization and transgenic mouse techniques.
