title: Tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactive neurons in the forebrain of the trout: organization, cellular features and innervation.
abstract: We studied the segmental distribution and cellular features of tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive (TH-ir) neurons in the forebrain of trout. Large differences in cell size, general morphology, and complexity of cell processes were observed between TH-ir nuclei of different regions, and a new type of complex spiny TH-ir neurons in the ventral telencephalon is described for the first time. The distribution of TH-ir fibers was also analyzed and discussed.
