Figure Caption

Fig. 8 Cerebellovestibular tracts. (A, B) Immunostaining of 7 dpf larval brains with zebrin II. Lateral (A) and ventral (B) views with anterior to the left. (C) Immunostaining of a 30 dpf juvenile fish brain with anti-Pvalb7 antibody. Lateral view with anterior to the left. Cerebellovestibular tracts are indicated by arrowhead. (D, E) Retrograde labeling of cerebellovestibular tracts. A biotin-conjugated neural tracer was injected to the vestibular region (asterisk, D), which includes the descending octaval nucleus, of adult fish. A sagittal section was stained with zebrin II (green) and fluorescently labeled avidin (magenta). (E) High-magnification view of the box in (D). Note that a retrogradely labeled cell is a zebrin II⁺ Purkinje cell. The abbreviations are described in Fig. 1. Scale bars: 500 μm (D), 100 μm (A–C) and 50 μm (E).
