The present paper is aimed at an exploration of the possible functional significance of the
laminar organization of the goldfish tectum at both the cellular and the synaptic level. For this …

Homo sapiens harbor a complex and dynamic community of microorganisms, collectively
known as 'the microbiome', that together constitute the largest 'dispersed organ system'on …

The distribution of acetylcholinesterase and the activity of choline acetyltransferase was
studied in the tecta of normal frogs and frogs without retinal and/or nucleus (n.) isthmi inputs …

Choline acetyltransferase (CAT) was assayed in the optic tectum of 4 teleost species with
different visual powers. The results showed a close relationship between the enzyme levels …

Activities of choline acetyltransferase (CAT) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were
investigated in the goldfish optic tectum after disconnection of the optic afferents. Permanent …

The distribution of cholinergic cell bodies and fibers was examined in the mesencephalon
and isthmus of Gekko gecko. Distinct groups with prominent labeled cells were observed in …

Acetylcholinesterase localization has been studied by electron microscopic histochemistry in
the quail optic tectum. Ultrastructural analysis reveals that the different neuronal types in the …

The effects of visual deprivation (dark-rearing) on neurons in both the visual and oculomotor
systems of black mice were studied using morphologic and histochemical techniques. In the …

Numerous studies have been devoted to the biochemical development of the central
nervous system (CNS) and have been extensively reviewed. In this chapter only one aspect …

The localization of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the optic lobe in the developing chick
embryo was studied histochemically and biochemically. The histochemical reaction of AChE …
