Effect of early unilateral visual deprivation on cholinergic muscarinic receptors and acetylcholinesterase in chick optic lobe.

abstract：:Nitric oxide (NO) has been proposed as an intercellular messenger mediating postsynaptic to presynaptic information transfer in the induction of long-term potentiation. A number of studies support the possible involvement of NO in synaptic plasticity. NO may have a role in synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity in dev...
