Expression of MAP1a and MAP1b in the ganglionic eminence and the internal capsule of the human fetal brain.
2001
The expression of microtubule-associated proteins 1a and 1b (MAP1a and 1b) were investigated in two transient structures, the ganglionic eminence (GE) being a prominent part of the telencephalic proliferative zone and the perireticular nucleus (PR) within the internal capsule (IC). Anti-MAP1a immunolabels PR neurons from 18 weeks of gestation (wg) onwards, whereas anti-MAP1b immunolabels long IC fibers between 18 and 22 wg. MAP1b is further present in thalamic fibers that seem to terminate at the medial margin of the GE, in a moderate number of cells of the GE and its medial extension, the gangliothalamic body (GTB). From 26 to 33 wg MAP1b is expressed in short fiber bundles of the IC, a fe…
