Cortical Excitatory Neurons and Glia, But Not GABAergic Neurons, Are Produced in the Emx1-Expressing Lineage
Table 1. Approximate recombination levels in adult brain structures
Brain structures from 3 adult EmxIREScre;R26R mice were scored for approximate recombination level.The rating system ranges between - and +++++, with -= ~0-1% of cells within that structure expressing b-Gal, += ~1-10%, ++= ~10-25%, +++= ~25-50%, ++++= ~50-80%, +++++= ~80-100%.
