title: In vitro proliferation of radial glia within isolated tectal tissue explanted from adult goldfish.
abstract: Radial glia located in tectal tissue isolated from adult goldfish retain the ability to incorporate exogenous thymidine into DNA up to 5 days in culture. The rate of their proliferation is maximally enhanced during reinnervation of the tectum by optic fibers about 5 weeks after unilateral optic nerve crush.
