title: [Effect of visual deprivation on the cytochemical differentiation of neurons in the separate laminae of the rabbit superior colliculus].
abstract: The neurons of lamina II, III, VII of the superior colliculus are interferometrically shown to develop features of cytochemical underdevelopment in response to the exclusion of specific visual impulsation. Of the neurons of the lamina studied, lower protein contents in their cytoplasm and nuclei are characteristic, in addition to smaller sizes in comparison with normal ones. A definite specificity of these changes is revealed, which is explained by morphofunctional peculiarities of the neurons of the lamina of the superior colliculus studied.
