  • Title: Calretinin-containing neurons in trimethyltin-induced neurodegeneration in the rat hippocampus: an immunocytochemical study.
    Author: Geloso MC, Vinesi P, Michetti F.
    Journal: Exp Neurol; 1997 Jul; 146(1):67-73. PubMed ID: 9225739.
    Abstract:
    The present study uses immunocytochemistry to investigate the behavior of the calretinin (CR)-containing neuronal subpopulation (interneurons) of the rat hippocampus in neurodegenerative processes induced by the neurotoxicant trimethyltin. Cell counts of CR-immunolabeled interneurons indicated that these cells are spared by the neurotoxicant-induced degeneration, characterized by a generalized neuronal loss, as shown by quantitative analysis after cresyl violet staining.
