Abstract excerpt

Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) is transiently detectable in cells distributed throughout cranial sensory ganglia during early stages of gangliogenesis [embryonic day (E) 10.5-15.5]. Although TH cells appear in embryonic ganglia of both neural crest and placode origin, mature cranial sensory neurons th...
