Putative cholinergic elements in the photosensory pineal organ and retina of a teleost, Phoxinus phoxinus L. (Cyprinidae). Distribution of choline acetyltransferase immunoreactivity, acetylcholinesterase-positive elements and pinealofugally projecting neurons.
1986
Putative cholinergic neurons in the photosensory pineal organ of a cyprinid teleost, the European minnow, were studied by use of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) immunocytochemistry and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) histochemistry. Pinealofugally projecting neurons were visualized using retrograde HRP-filling through their cut axons. For comparison, the distribution of choline acetyltransferase immunoreactivity (ChAT-IR) and AChE-positive elements in the retina was investigated.
