Research Abstract |
1In the present study, we developed viral vectors, which express transsynaptic tracer protein, tetanus toxin C fragment (TTC) or wheat germ agglutinin (WGA). We then injected the viral vectors into the neocortex of the wild rats or Cre Tg mice, and observed the immunoreactivity for TTC or WGA. We could observe the transsynaptic transfer of TTC or WGA, but unfortunately the signal intensities were too week to analyze the cell types and numbers even with high-sensitive detection method.
