A photomicrograph of H&E stained section in the left hippocampus from control group: CA1 and CA2 are in the superior region of Cornu Ammonis (CA), while CA3 and CA4 are in its inferior region. The dentate gyrus (DG) appears as a dark C-shaped cap surrounding CA4 by its superior and inferior limbs (SL and IL). CA4 is located inside the concavity of the DG, forming the hilus (H). Notice the presence of the molecular layer (ML) inside the concavity of CA and outside the convexity of DG. [H&E, X 40]
