Fig. 3

Photomicrographs showing white matter above the frontal horn of the lateral ventricle in 46-day-old hydrocephalic ferret brains, after a 14-day treatment period with MgSO4 or NaCl. a (upper pair)—corpus callosum CC thinning is evident in both animals (solochrome cyanine stains myelin blue, with pink eosin counterstain). b (lower pair)—GFAP immunolabeling (brown) showing hypertrophic reactive astrocytes in periventricular white matter near the lateral angle of the frontal horn. There is no obvious difference between the two groups of hydrocephalic ferrets. Objective magnification: a-40x, b-100x; Scale bar = 100 μm. Lateral ventricles LV, Subventricular zone SVZ
