Abstract：
:The distribution of AMPA-type glutamate receptor (GluR) subunits was studied in the Edinger-Westphal nucleus (EW) of chicks and pigeons. GluR1, GluR2, GluR3 and GluR4 subunits appeared to be present in EW neurons of both species, but interspecific differences were observed in the abundance of the different types of subunits found in EW neurons. Of particular note, GluR2 immunoreactivity was present in the vast majority (ca. 80%) of neurons of pigeon EW but was found in only a small fraction (ca. 15%) of chick EW neurons. Scarcity of the GluR2 subunit in chick EW was confirmed by in situ hybridization. Because of the tendency for parvalbumin to be localized to neurons that are selectively deficient in GluR2, we also studied the localization of parvalbumin, as well as other calcium-binding proteins, in EW of chick and pigeon. Parvalbumin was found in more than 50% of chick EW neurons but was not detected in pigeon EW neurons. Our results suggest that there are major glutamatergic inputs to EW neurons in both pigeons and chicks. Furthermore, there are likely to be more AMPA-type calcium-permeable glutamate receptors in EW neurons of chick than in pigeon, since it is known that the subtype containing the edited GluR2 subunit is not calcium permeable.
