Caption

Transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TCR)-deficient mice show microglia and astrocyte activation in the white matter. A-F) Mac2-immunostaining of activated microglia in the medullary reticular formation of 25 week old wild-type (wt) and nucleotide excision repair (NER)-deficient mice showing the presence of Mac2-positive microglia cells in the reticular formation of Ercc8^tm1Jhjh/Ercc8^tm1Jhjh (Csa^-/-) (B), Ercc6^tm1Gvh/Ercc6^tm1Gvh (Csb^-/-) (C) and Ercc2^tm3Jhjh/Ercc2^tm3Jhjh (Xpd^XPCS) (E) mice, but not in Xpa^tm1Hvs/Xpa^tm1Hvs (Xpa^-/-) or Ercc2^{tm2(ERCC2)Jhjh}/Ercc2^{tm2(ERCC2)Jhjh} (Xpd^TTD) mice.
