Abstract
Retinal lesions in pigeons produced a marked depletion of somata and neuropil staining for both calbindin-D28k and parvalbumin immunoreactivities in the contralateral optic tectum. Calbindin-like immunoreactivity reappeared in some tectal layers by 6 weeks postlesion, whereas parvalbumin-like immunoreactivity recovered almost completely after 5 weeks. These data indicate that the retinal input may control the expression of calbindin and parvalbumin in the pigeon optic tectum.
