3D image of a GFAP (glial-fibrillary-acidic protein, green) -/GS (glutamine-synthetase, magneta)- positive, reactive Müller cell in the neurodegenerative retina. In situ hybridization for Tgfbr2 (transforming growth factor receptor 2, red) is shown. By combining in situ hybridization, immunofluorescence staining and 3D reconstruction, the research group of Prof. Barbara Braunger at the Institute of Neuroanatomy, University […]
