"They are seen in grey matter, particularly deep grey matter nuclei (e.g. putamina, globus pallidi and dentate nuclei) 1,2."
"Microscopically these reactive astrocytes demonstrate enlarged pale nuclei, due to inconspicuous chromatin granules, with one or two sharply demarcated PAS-positive bodies adjacent to the nuclear membrane 1. GFAP staining of the cell body is poor 2. On electron microscopy, numerous mitochondria are evident 1."
