PECULIARITIES OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE IN THE LATERAL POSTERIOR NUCLEUS OF THE THALAMUS OF THE CAT
Using the technique of histochemical detection of enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE), the existence of the loci with high enzyme activity in the lateral nucleus of the lateral posterior thalamic complex was demonstrated in 2-week-old kittens (n=4) in contrast to the kittens aged 14 weeks (n=4). These loci were located opposite similar loci in the medial nucleus of the lateral posterior thalamic complex. Possible link between identified AChE-positive loci and the organization of thalamo-cortical and cortico-thalamic projections is discussed.
