Figure Lengend Snippet: Brain slice cultured at 7 days with adding labelled arachnoid cells (red) including nuclear staining DAPI (4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) (blue) A) The yellow outline indicates blood vessels within the brain slice, with the arachnoid growing nearby, the image was taken at ×40 magnification and 100 μm depth; B) Shows a brain slice cultured for 4 days, showing bipolar and tripolar morphology of arachnoid cells (red) Note: The image was taken at ×60 magnification and 50 μm depth using a BioRad MRC-1024 single photon confocal microscope 1024 (BioRad Cell Science, UK).
Article Snippet: To determine if arachnoid cells cultured on brain slices survived and penetrated organotypic slices, 3 brain slices were fixed in 10% formalin at each time point (i.e. day 3, 7, and 10) and analyzed using a BioRad MRC-1024 single photon confocal microscope 1024 (BioRad Cell Science, UK).
