  • Title: Retinal projections in the hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus). An autoradiographic and horseradish peroxidase study.
    Author: Dinopoulos A, Karamanlidis AN, Michaloudi H, Antonopoulos J, Papadopoulos G.
    Journal: Anat Embryol (Berl); 1987; 176(1):65-70. PubMed ID: 3605651.
    Abstract:
    The retinal projections of the hedgehog were studied using tritiated leucine and horseradish peroxidase as orthograde tracers. In both series of experiments labeling was seen bilaterally in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the dorsal and the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus, the superior colliculus, and the pretectal area and contralaterally in the terminal nuclei (dorsal, lateral and medial) of the accessory optic system. A retino-intergeniculate leaflet projection is described for the first time in this species, and its significance is discussed.
