Fig. 6

Cholinergic innervation of the visual and non-visual sectors of the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), the ventral posterolateral nucleus (VPL), and posterior nucleus (Po) in WT and math5^−/− mice at P14. a Examples are coronal sections through the dorsolateral aspect of thalamus. Boxes depict regions of interest where the extent of cholinergic innervation was measured. Scale bars = 100 μm. b Summary plot depicting the degree of cholinergic innervation in TRN, VPL, and Po for WT (blue) and math5^−/− (red) mice. Each bar represents the mean (±SEM) derived from a total of 6 hemispheres, using 3–5 successive sections
