Localization of Corpora amylacea in human brain, as visualized by light and electron microscopy. Human brain tissue from donor B, diagnosed with PD. (a) H&E staining revealing CA in the hippocampus region adjacent to the lateral ventricle. (b) High magnification image of (a) region where some cell nuclei and the vascular system of the brain are in close proximity to CA. (c) SBF-SEM image showing CA within a directly adjacent tissue section. The region shown corresponds to the black box (dotted lines) in (a). The tomogram including this region is shown in Supplementary Movie 1. Black arrowheads = CA; red arrowheads = blood vessels; blue arrowheads = nuclei. Scale bars = 60 µm.
