FIGURE 1 S100Z expression in the main olfactory system of larval Xenopus laevis. (a) Immunohistochemical staining for S100Z revealed cells with neuron-like morphology, bipolar shape with dendritic knobs, throughout the whole MOE of the peripheral olfactory organ. The axon-like processes of S100Z-positive cells extended into the ON. (b) Axons of S100Z-positive cells projected into glomeruli within the glomerular layer of the OB in premetamorphic tadpoles. No S100Z-positive cell bodies were visible in the different layers of the OB. Structures of the olfactory system and glomerular clusters are outlined with a dotted white line. A, anterior; IC, intermediate cluster; L, lateral; LC, lateral cluster; M, medial; MOE, main olfactory epithelium; OB, olfactory bulb; ON, olfactory nerve; P, posterior.
