Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor α3 mRNA in Rat Visual System After Monocular DeprivationTaylor, James H. (James Harvey), 1970- 08 1900 (has links)
In situ hybridization was used to examine effects of monocular enucleation on
nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunit cc3 mRNA in the rat dLGNand visual cortex. After 28 days postoperative, there were no significant differences in α3 mRNA density between the contralateral (deprived) and ipsilateral (non-deprived) sides. The lack of obvious effects of visual deprivation on α3 mRNA density suggests that other factors, possibly intrinsic to dLGNand visual cortex, govern the postnatal expression of α3 mRNA.
