Distribution of QECQDs in the CNS. (a) Schematic diagram of the distribution of QECQDs in the CNS 30 min following intrathecal injection. (b, c) Representative fluorescence images of brain tissue sections after intrathecal injection of QECQDs. Scale bar, 1 mm. Dashed box (c) shows an enlarged view of the brain parenchyma edge region. Scale bar, 100 μm. (d) Fluorescence quantitative analysis of the brain parenchyma and meningeal system in selected areas on the left and right sides (n = 3/group, two-tailed Student’s t-test). (e) Representative fluorescence images of dura mater tissue after intrathecal injection of QECQDs. The upper left inset shows the various regions of the dura mater and the superior sagittal and transverse sinuses. The dashed boxes correspond to the magnified fields of different regions of the dura mater in the right image. SSS: superior sagittal sinus, TS: transverse sinus. Scale bar, 100 mm. (f) Quantitative fluorescence analysis of the superior sagittal sinus, transverse sinus, dura mater (cortex), and dura mater (cerebellum) (n = 7/group, one-way ANOVA)
