Summary— The distribution of the ionophore [ 3 h]‐A 23187 was examined by means of light and electron microscopy in elements of the central nervous system located in the diencephalo‐mesencephalic roof. A 23187 is not evenly distributed in the components studied (ependyma, secretory ependyma of the subcommissural organ and neurons of the mesencephalon). At the cellular level, A 23187 appears preferentially associated with the cytoplasmic membrane as well as with the internal membranous system.
