Additional file 6 of Distinct forebrain regions define a dichotomous astrocytic profile in multiple system atrophy

Additional file 6: Fig. S5. Nuclear and diffuse distribution patterns of EAAT2 expressing astrocytes in MSA patients and controls. Analysis of expression patterns of EAAT2 reveals a nuclear and a diffuse expression pattern of EAAT2. Quantification demonstrates that there is a re-distribution of EAAT2 toward the astrocytic soma in the putamen of MSA patients compared to controls, however not reaching statistical significance (p = 0.057, Mann-Whitney-U test). Scale bar = 12.5 µm.
