Abstract:The distribution of neurons which express the gene for the growth-associated protein, GAP-43, in the adult carp central nervous system (CNS) was studied by in situ hybridization using newly formed RNA probes for carp GAP-43 mRNA. A great number of neurons heavily labeled by the 35 S-labeled antisense probe were found in the telencephalon, diencephalon, mesencephalon, optic tectum, pontine area, medulla oblongata and spinal cord. Motoneurons of the cranial nerves, i.e., the oculomotor, trochlear, trigeminal and… Show more
