Quantitative map of dopamine 1- and 2-receptor positive neurons in the developing and adult mouse brain (v1.0)

This dataset contains quantitative data describing the numbers, densities, and sizes of D1- and D2-receptor positive neurons across the mouse forebrain, acquired by analysing section images from the DOPAMAP collection. Image series from a total of 111 subjects across the five age groups (P17, P25, P35, P49, and P70) were analyzed. We used ilastik to segment cells in the images and combined the resulting segmentation images with reference atlas maps generated using QuickNII and VisuAlign. In this dataset, we provide the segmentation images and reference atlas maps used, as well as the raw output from the analysis and estimates of densities, numbers, and sizes derived from the analysis. We also provide the ilastik classifier used, which may be useful for analysing similar (DAB-stained) data. Together, this dataset provides all the data needed to inspect and explore our data, reproduce our analysis, or re-use the segmentation images with new atlas maps (e.g. with future versions of the Allen mouse brain CCF).
