Use of Laser Capture Microdissection to isolate the hippocampus dentate gyrus from an adult mouse. A) Intact coronal brain section at ~Bregma -1.35 stained with cresyl violet. B & C) dentate gyrus (DG) has been microdissected with laser. D) dentate gyrus has been isolated and captured for total RNA extraction and construction of SAGE libraries. Images were captured using a Sony DXC-390P 3-CCD color video camera attached to a Nikon Eclipse TE2000-S microscope (10× magnification). Scale bar = 100 μm. D: dorsal; V: ventral.
