Postnatal fate of Dbx1-derived cells in the VMH in males and females. Schematic of a coronal view of the postnatal brain at the level of the VMH (a) show regions analyzed in (B-C.iv). Low magnification merged panels (b and c) are shown on the left, with high magnification of boxed area shown in right panels (i - iii). In the VMH, a high percentage of Dbx1-derived neurons (green) express markers (red) Estrogen Receptor (ER; B-B.iv) and Aromatase (Arom; C-C.iv). Mean ± SEM; n = 3 mice per sex. The scale bar represents 50 μm for low mag panels (b and c) and 10 μm for high mag panels (i-iii)
