Localization of choline acetyltransferase to somata of posterior lateral line efferents in the goldfish.
The somata of posterior lateral line efferents in goldfish have been identified by retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase. Co-localization of retrogradely transported horseradish peroxidase and choline acetyltransferase, detected by immunohistochemical staining with the monoclonal antibody AB8, supports the view that some lateral line efferent neurons in the goldfish are cholinergic.
