Differential expression of AMPA-type glutamate receptor subunits during development of the chick optic tectum

Differential expression of AMPA-type glutamate receptor subunits during development of the chick optic tectum

Glutamate receptors have been often associated with developmental processes. We used immunohistochemical techniques to evaluate the expression of the AMPA-type glutamate receptor (GluR) subunits in the chick optic tectum (TeO). Chick embryos from the 5th through the 20th embryonic day (E5-E20) and o...
