%X Half of adult taste neurons express the TrkB receptor. a) Representative image of the entire z-stack of a whole mount adult geniculate ganglion from a Phox2b-Cre::tdTomato::TrkBGFP/+ mouse labeled for both tdTomato (oral cavity-projecting, red) and GFP (TrkB, green). b) Quantification of the total number of neurons (n =£¿3) projecting to the oral cavity (red only) and oral cavity-projecting neurons that express TrkBGFP (double-labeled). c-e) Magnified images of a single optical section illustrate the criteria used to identify and count single-labeled (arrowhead) and double-labeled (arrow) oral cavity-projecting neurons. Scale bar£¿=£¿50£¿¦Ìm (a) and 10£¿¦Ìm (c-e). ***p <£¿0.00
