From: Giant pyramidal neurons of the primary motor cortex express vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), a known marker of cortical interneurons

Fig. 3

Co-localisation of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) with a neuronal marker (NeuN) and parvalbumin (PV) in the Betz cells. (a) Confocal images of cortical layer 5 showing immunoreactivity to VIP either with neuronal marker NeuN (top) or PV (bottom). The two cyan dashed lines identify layer 5. (b) Insets at higher magnification. White arrows point to the Betz cells in all images. Scale 100 µm (a) and 50 µm (b). VIP antibody used in production of images is from Atlas Antibodies (Cat# HPA017324).
