RESUMO

I show, by in situ hybridization, that c-fos is expressed in the nervous system during mouse development. This expression was found to be restricted to specific regions at late stages of development (day 16 postcoitum), particularly to the spinal cord, dorsal root ganglia, and olfactory lobe. The c-fos protein may play a role in the maturation of these structures by activating specific genes.
