文摘

CART-ir structures form various tiers, that correspond to anatomically defined layers of the SCs. Abundance of CART in the SCs suggests a possible role of this putative neurotransmitter in processing of visual information. CART does not colocalize with calbindin, calretinin nor parvalbumin. CaBPs patterns in the SCs of the guinea pig differ, to some extent, from those of other rodents.
