Ultrastructural localization of cholinesterase activity in the developing rat retina.
Retinae of rats from the 16th day of gestation to 10 weeks postnatal age were treated for the ultrastructural localization of cholinesterases according to the method of Lewis and Shute. The use of selective inhibitors served to differentiate between acetylcholinesterase and nonspecific cholinesterase activities. Nonspecific cholinesterase activity was marked in the rough endoplasmic reticulum o...
متن کاملCholine acetyltransferase-immunoreactive neurons in the developing rat retina.
The development of cholinergic cells in the rat retina has been examined with immunocytochemistry by using antisera against choline acetyltransferase (ChAT). ChAT-immunoreactive (IR) cells were first detected at embryonic day 17 (E17) in the transitional zone between the neuroblastic layer (NBL) and ganglion cell layer (GCL). At E20, ChAT-IR cells are located exclusively in the GCL. At postnata...
متن کاملLight triggers expression of philanthotoxin-insensitive Ca2+-permeable AMPA receptors in the developing rat retina.
Ca2+-permeable AMPA receptors (AMPARs) are expressed throughout the adult CNS but yet their role in development is poorly understood. In the developing retina, most investigations have focused on Ca2+ influx through NMDARs in promoting synapse maturation and not on AMPARs. However, NMDARs are absent from many retinal cells suggesting that other Ca2+-permeable glutamate receptors may be importan...
متن کاملDiffusible rod-promoting signals in the developing rat retina.
We previously developed a reaggregate cell culture system in which embryonic rat retinal neuroepithelial cells proliferate and give rise to opsin-expressing rod photoreceptor cells (rods) on the same schedule in vitro as they do in vivo. We showed that the proportion of neuroepithelial cells in the embryonic day 15 (E15) retina that differentiated into opsin+ rods after 5-6 days in such culture...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal expression patterns of 6B4 proteoglycan/phosphacan in the developing rat retina.
PURPOSE To investigate expression of 6B4 proteoglycan/phosphacan, the major constituent of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan and a possible modulator of neural network formation in the developing central nervous system, in developing rat retina. METHODS Changes in expression and localization of 6B4 proteoglycan in developing rat retina were investigated by reverse transcription-initiated polym...
