Sections of adult rat brain stem showing contral lateral facial nucleus to that shown in previous figure, also 3 days after lesion of the contralateral facial nerve. Stained using ABC-DAB technique with 2E3 monoclonal antibody to a-internexin. Note strong staining only of fibres passing through the nucleus.
