Caption A & B: Autofluorescence in the hippocampus of 3-month-old wild-type (A) and Clcn6tm1Tjj/Clcn6tm1Tjj (B) littermates. Note the localization in initial axon segments in the homozygote (arrow). C: Golgi staining of a homozygote cortical neuron reveals proximal axonal swelling (a meganeurite; arrow) that was seen in 20% of cortical neurons; age, 6 months. D: Electron microscopy reveals a similar swelling of a hippocampal axon because of material accumulation (arrow). The neuronal plasma membrane is surrounded by a dashed line; n, nucleus. E: Avacuolar, lipofuscin-like lipopigment that was nearly always associated with lipid droplets in a homozygous cortical neuron. F & G: Electron microscopy of DRG axons (ax) from wild-type (F) and homozygote (G) P90 littermates reveals storage material in the homozygote. Scalebars: A-C: 20um; D: 2um; E: 400um; F & G: 1um
