Granular coated vesicles in the goldfish Mauthner cell following axotomy.
Axotomy of the goldfish Mauthner cell induces a marked increase in the occurrence of granular coated vesicles in close association with axosomatic synapses. This phenomenon, which persists for over 200 days, is discussed in relation to other morphological and physiological changes which occur over the same time period.
