Abstract excerpt
Hess and Rockland [Hess and Rockland (1983) Brain Res. 289, 322-325] proposed that the distribution of acetylcholinesterase within the lateral geniculate nucleus might correlate with the daily activity patterns shown by primates. In diurnal primates, the magnocellular laminae show a greater acetylcholinesterase reaction product. In nocturnal primates, the parvocellular laminae are more heavily stained. We have...
