 | | Authors: YASUSHI OHTA, MD, KEIICHI ICHIMURA, MD We immunohistochemically identified proliferating cells in the olfactory epithelium of mice, using an anti#proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) antibody, an anti-Ki67 antibody, an anti#5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) antibody, and an anti#cyclin D1 antibody. |
 | | Positive cells stained by the 4 antibodies were identified mainly in the basal layer. |
 | | The mean numbers of positive cells stained by the 4 antibodies in 500 olfactory epithelium cells from each animal were as follows: PCNA-positive cells 42, Ki67-positive cells 23, BrdU-positive cells 13.7, and cyclin D1#positive cells 9.2. |
