Expression of guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase (GAMT) in CPxEpic. A mRNA expression of MCT12 and GAMT in TR-CSFB3 cells. Polymerase chain reaction was conducted with ( +) or without ( −) reverse transcription. The rat liver was used as a positive control. B Immunohistochemical staining of GAMT in the rat choroid plexus. Arrowheads indicate CPxEpic. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). Scale bar: 20 µm
