Abstract

The distribution of calbindin D-28K (CaBP28K) cell bodies and fibers in the nucleus pretectalis superficialis parvicellularis of the rainbow trout was studied using a monoclonal antibody and the avidin-biotin-peroxidase method. In this diencephalic nucleus a very high density of CaBP28K immunoreactive fibers was found. In addition, a high density of CaBP28K positive neurons was also observed. These neurons were small, showing one, two or three short and non-branching dendritic trunks. The distribution and orientation of the immunoreactive cell bodies in the nucleus pretectalis superficialis parvicellularis suggests that the neurons might be interneurons and/or projecting neurons.
