  • Title: The differential staining patterns of two lectins in the accessory olfactory bulb of the rat.
    Author: Takami S, Graziadei PP, Ichikawa M.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1992 Dec 11; 598(1-2):337-42. PubMed ID: 1283109.
    Abstract:
    We examined the binding sites of Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin I (BSL-I) and Vicia villosa agglutinin (VVA) which bind to the vomeronasal nerve of the rat. BSL-I stained the whole vomeronasal nerve and glomerular layers. VVA strongly stained the posterior 2/3, but weakly stained the anterior 1/3 of the glomerular layer. These results indicate that the glomeruli of the rat AOB have two subdivisions revealed by lectin histochemistry using BSL-I and VVA.
