Abstract

Morphological evidence of a temporal parallelism between the appearance of the alpha isoform of protein kinase C (PKC) and some processes such as synaptogenesis in the plexiform layers of the chicken retina is offered. Immunostaining experiments were performed throughout embryonic, young and adult chicken life. The results help to understand the development of rod bipolar cells.
