  • Title: Retrograde intraaxonal transport of horseradish peroxidase by neurons in octopus.
    Author: Monsell EM, Cottee LJ.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1980 Jan 13; 181(2):251-8. PubMed ID: 6153146.
    Abstract:
    While retrograde axonal transport is the basis of a widely used neuroanatomical method, it has been rigorously demonstrated in vivo only in a few vertebrate species and not yet in an invertebrate. Evidence is presented that motor neurons of the octopus stellate ganglion are capable of retrograde intraaxonal transport of horeseradish peroxidase. This demonstration shows that retrograde transport occurs in widely divergent groups of animals, and may be a general property of neurons.
