title: Transient GABA-like immunoreactive axons in the corpus callosum of perinatal rats.
abstract: During the early postnatal development of the rat, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-like immunoreactive axons were contained within the subcortical white matter. Some of the immunoreactive axons crossed the midline, while others followed a vertical or longitudinal trajectory within the lateral part of the corpus callosum. Growth cones were occasionally observed. The immunoreactive axons were transitory, and were last detected at postnatal day 6.
