The expression of telencephalin in visual cortex of cat and monkey was studied immunohistochemically. In adult cats and monkeys, immunoreactivity to a polyclonal antibody raised against telencephalin was especially low in layer IV, which receives massive afferent input from the thalamus. In kitten visual cortex, the antibody bound both layer IV and other cortical layers during the most sensitive period for ocular dominance plasticity. Outside the sensitive period, the staining of layer IV was selectively reduced. These findings suggest that the expression of telencephalin is developmentally regulated during the early period and may play a role in regulating plasticity during the sensitive period.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D014018 Tissue Distribution Accumulation of a drug or chemical substance in various organs (including those not relevant to its pharmacologic or therapeutic action). This distribution depends on the blood flow or perfusion rate of the organ, the ability of the drug to penetrate organ membranes, tissue specificity, protein binding. The distribution is usually expressed as tissue to plasma ratios. Distribution, Tissue,Distributions, Tissue,Tissue Distributions
