Developmental defects of the internal capsule in developing brains of jsap1-/-. (A-L) Cresyl violet (A-J) or anti-MAP-2 (K-L) stained coronal sections of E14.5-E18.5 brains. The fiber tracts of the internal capsule were not clearly detected until E15.5 in both genotypes. The thickness of the fiber tracts in jsap1-/- at E17.5-E18.5 was larger than that of jsap1+/+. Arrows indicate the fiber tracts of the internal capsule. Scale bar, 100 µm.
