Five representative 40× fields from three brains were photographed per marker, and green and double-positive cells were manually counted. The percentage of double-positive cells was calculated by dividing the number of double-positive cells by the total number of green cells counted for each marker, separately. There are statistically significant differences between the distributions of all CD82–IRES–EGFP+/marker+ and control EGFP+/marker+ cells, almost all shRNA-ZsGreen+/marker+, and control ZsGreen+/marker+ cells, with the exception of PDGFRα+ in the cortex. There is no significant difference between the distributions of markers of control EGFP+ and control ZsGreen+ cells.
