title: 2',3'-Cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphohydrolase in acrylamide-induced optic neuropathy in rabbit.
abstract: The in vivo effects of acrylamide on the nerve tissues of the rabbit optic pathway were examined. The optic nerve of acrylamide-treated rabbits showed inflammatory changes and degeneration. The decrease of myelin was observed with myelin stain. The activity of 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphohydrolase (EC.3.1.4.37) which is firmly bound to myelin was markedly diminished by acrylamide intoxication.
