FIGURE 10. Axolotl GFAP antibody labeling (red), with DAPI labeled nuclei (blue). GFAP labeling showed bundles of radial ependymal fibers in sections of the intact juvenile (A) and adult (B) Axolotl spinal cord. Arrow in B indicates the bundle of tanycyte radial fibers extending dorsally. There was also cytoplasmic GFAP content at both stages. In the stump region at 3 weeks of regeneration, GFAP was reduced in the radial processes (C) and was at low levels in the regenerative outgrowth (D). Arrows indicate location of the denticulate ligaments associated with meninges surrounding the regenerative outgrowth (D). The bright red spots are red blood cell autofluorescence.
