— A rapid axonal transport of 35 SO 4 in axons of retinal ganglion cells of the rabbit was demonstrated after intraocular administration of the isotope. Transported radioactivity accumulated in the nerve terminals up to 2 days following isotope injection. No evidence for a slow transport of labelled material was found. A considerable part of transported radioactivity had solubility characteristics of glycosaminoglycans, primarily chondroitin sulphate.
