Demonstration of a substance P-like immunoreactivity in retinal cells of the rat.

abstract：:To verify the hypothesis that the control of movement by the cortical masticatory area (CMA) is particularly important at the beginning of the mastication, we compared movements before and after bilateral CMA ablation. After ablation, the animal could not manipulate food placed in the front of the mouth for several da...
