Summary
The brain-specific acidic protein S-100 is a migratory protein from soma to terminals of the glossopharyngeal and vagus nerves of rabbit (axonal transport of S-100 protein).
Autoradiographic analyses indicate that certain proteins including probably the S-100 conveyed to the nerve endings of the otic ganglion migrate beyond them, towards the ancillary cells of the axo-dendritic synapses and eventually to the postsynaptic neurons (transynaptic transfer of S-100).
