Seeing Is Believing: Myelin Dynamics in the Adult CNS.

abstract：:In situ hybridization histochemistry reveals localized expression of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) alpha 2 subunit mRNA restricted to the lateral spiriform nucleus (SpL) of the chick diencephalon. The alpha 2 nAChR transcripts are not detected in immature SpL neurons at 4.5-5 days of embryonic developme...
