PCNA-negativity in the telencephalon of adult female songbirds (Serinus serinus): absence of signs of normal proliferation.

In a recent study, we demonstrated the persistence of normal proliferation in the telencephalon of adult male songbirds (Serinus serinus), as shown by the expression of Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA), a test that uses monoclonal antibodies to reveal cells in the S phase. Near the start of the breeding season, this proliferation was observed in circumscribed areas of the ventricular e...

Signs of normal proliferation in the telencephalon of adult male songbirds (serinus serinus), as shown by PCNA-positivity.

Therefore, PCNA can be considered a marker of proliferation, and numerous literature reports have demonstrated the reliabilit...
