Expression of SLIT and ROBO mRNAs in Hippocampus and Entorhinal Cortex. In situ hybridized sections for detection of SLIT1 (a), SLIT2 (b), SLIT3 (c), ROBO1 (d), and ROBO2 (e), and cresyl violet-stained section (f) of the hippocampus. DG: dentate gyrus; Sub: subiculum; ProS: prosubiculum; PrS: presubiculum. Scale bar = 1 mm. Layer distributions of SLIT1 (g), SLIT2 (h), SLIT3 (i), ROBO1 (k), and ROBO2 (l) mRNAs in entorhinal cortex. Adjacent section for cresyl violet staining (m). Scale bar = 100 µm. The laminar profiles indicate the layer distributions of SLITs (j) and ROBOs (n). The density profiles of SLIT1 (blue), SLIT2 (red) and SLIT3 (green) were plotted along cortical depth (j). The density profiles of ROBO1 (blue) and ROBO2 (red) were plotted along cortical depth (n)
