CD15 and HKN-1 reveal cerebellar compartments with a complex overlap

The CD15-epitope in the cerebellar cortex is expressed by Bergmann glial fibers which are organized in symmetrical iterative stripes. Their arrangement appears complementary to the pattern described for the organization of compartments demonstrated by any other marker used so far. HNK-1 however, reveals stripes that are not complementary to the general pattern for the organization of compartments.
