Figure 1 The structural morphology of the olfactory system is conserved following axotomy. (A) Dorsal view of a X. laevis larvae (Stage 54), OE, olfactory nerve (ON), olfactory bulb (OB), anterior (A), posterior (P), right (R), left (L);(B) longitudinal section of the OE at the level of the PC, scale bar: 100 mm; (B’) longitudinal section of the OE 24 h after axotomy (ONx), the arrow points to the incision site; (C) magnification of the dotted box in (B), apical layer (AL), middle layer (ML), and basal layer (BL), scale bar: 20 mm; (C’) magnification of the dotted box in (B’), note the presence of numerous pyknotic nuclei mainly in the ML, staining: Masson–Goldner’s trichrome stain; (D) quantification of the average thickness (mm)6standard error of the mean from the OE layers at different periods post-axotomy, different superscripts correspond to total OE height and denote statistically significant differences between groups, n57 for each group, ANOVA and Tuckey test, P<0.05.
