Abstract excerpt
Regional specialization in the retina have been described in a number of species. We have investigated whether such specializations can be found in the optic tectum, an area of the brain responsible for the processing of visual information. Using the tectum of Rana pipiens, we have examined the distribution of three different cell types defined on the basis of their immunoreactivity to somatostatin, substance P,...
