Abstract
After unilateral bulbectomy in neonatal (P1–P5) rats, autoradiographically prelabeled presumptive olfactory bulbs from E15 and E17 embryos were transplanted in place of the removed tissue. After 2–7 months, the animals received injections of wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP) into the piriform cortex. Nine of the twenty animals revealed WGA-HRP-positive neurons among neurons autoradiographically labeled, providing thus evidence that the axons of the output neurons from the homotopically transplanted olfactory bulb reconnect with the host piriform cortex.
