Abstract：
:The pattern of NADPH-diaphorase expression was studied in the retina and optic tectum of the cichlid fish Tilapia mariae during the first developmental stages. NADPH-diaphorase activity was seen early, at hatching. In the retina a few cell bodies of the retinal inner nuclear layer showed a faint labeling. Scattered labeled cells were found in the stratum periventriculare of the optic tectum, while the optic nerve was unlabeled. Two days after hatching, the number of labeled neurons increased in the inner nuclear layer and a few stained cell bodies were also scattered in the ganglion cell layer. Both the inner and outer plexiform layers showed a diffuse staining and the optic nerve was devoid of labeling. In the optic tectum several positive cells in the periventricular layer, with their dendritic trees extending in the superficial fibrous layer, were found. In 1-month-old Tilapia, NADPH-diaphorase staining and nitric oxide synthase immunoreactivity were found to overlap in both the retina and optic tectum. The density of NADPH-diaphorase labeled neurons in the inner nuclear layer of the retina and in the stratum periventriculare of the optic tectum was largely reduced in comparison with 2 days posthatching embryos. These findings indicated an early and transient production of nitric oxide in the retina and optic tectum of Tilapia, suggesting a functional role for nitric oxide in the development of visual structures in aquatic vertebrates.
