title: Selective retrograde transport of tritiated D-aspartate from the olfactory bulb to the anterior olfactory nucleus, pyriform cortex and nucleus of the lateral olfactory tract in the rat.
abstract: After an injection of [3H]D-aspartate into the olfactory bulb of the rat, retrogradely labeled cells were detected bilaterally in the anterior olfactory nucleus (AON), and ipsilaterally in the pyriform cortex (PC) and nucleus of the lateral olfactory tract (NLOT). These results suggest a certain selective retrograde transport of this amino acid, and are discussed in relation to transmitter candidates in the olfactory bulb.
