Disorganization of the OE in Kif26a^−/− mice. (a–h) Expression of GAP43 (green) and OMP (red) in the OE at P7. Compared with wild-type mice (a–d), Kif26a^−/− mice (e–h) showed disorganization. (i) The number of GAP43-positive immature OSNs was significantly lower in Kif26a^−/− mice than in wild-type mice. (j) The number of OMP-positive mature OSNs was significantly greater in Kif26a^−/− mice than in wild-type mice. DAPI was used for nuclear staining. The scale bars represent 20 μm.
