Abstract excerpt
Many studies have emphasized species differences in the serotoninergic innervation and phenotypic characteristics of the subcommissural organ in mammals. The post-natal distribution patterns of serotonin-containing fibers, the onset of gamma-aminobutyric acid uptake, and glial markers have been s...
