ABSTRACT
The Fos protein was immunocytochemically detected in the chick ventral lateral geniculate nucleus after novel stationary and optokinetic stimulation. Fos-positive nuclei were mainly detected in the internal part of the ventral geniculate when the animals were submitted to stationary visual stimulation. On the other hand, Fos-positive nuclei were mainly seen in the external part of the nucleus when optokinetic stimuli were used. These data reveal functional subdivisions of the avian ventral geniculate, and support the hypothesis that this nucleus is involved in several aspects of the visual function.
