A quantitative comparison of the efficiency of orthograde axonal transport and transsynaptic transport of iodinated (125I) wheat germ agglutinin (I-WGA) and horseradish peroxidase labeled I-WGA (I-WGA-HRP) in the rat visual system. 1985

C H Rhodes, and J O Gonatas, and N K Gonatas

A quantitative study of the orthograde axonal transport of iodinated wheat germ agglutinin (I-WGA) and I-WGA conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (I-WGA-HRP) demonstrated labeling of both the lateral geniculate nucleus and the visual cortex following intraocular injections. I-WGA was 13 times more efficient than I-WGA-HRP as a marker of the primary projection from the retina to the geniculate and 3 times more efficient than I-WGA-HRP as a marker of the second order projection to the cortex.

D012160 Retina The ten-layered nervous tissue membrane of the eye. It is continuous with the OPTIC NERVE and receives images of external objects and transmits visual impulses to the brain. Its outer surface is in contact with the CHOROID and the inner surface with the VITREOUS BODY. The outer-most layer is pigmented, whereas the inner nine layers are transparent. Ora Serrata

D006735 Horseradish Peroxidase An enzyme isolated from horseradish which is able to act as an antigen. It is frequently used as a histochemical tracer for light and electron microscopy. Its antigenicity has permitted its use as a combined antigen and marker in experimental immunology.
