Postnatal development in the serotonin content of brain visual structures.
The serotonin content in various structures of the geniculate and extrageniculate visual system throughout the postnatal development period has been investigated. The results indicate that in all structures studied there is a increase in the content of serotonin. However, each structure showed a different developmental profile of serotonin levels.
