Enhancement of apoptosis in developing chick neural retina cells by basic fibroblast growth factor.

abstract：:Chick imprinting behavior is a good model for the study of learning and memory. Imprinting object is recognized and processed in the visual wulst, and the memory is stored in the intermediate medial mesopallium in the dorsal pallium of the telencephalon. We identified chicken cholecystokinin (CCK)-expressing cells loc...
