Whole-mount acetylcholinesterase (AChE) staining reveals unique motor innervation of the lamprey oral region: with special reference to the evolutionary origin of the vertebrate jaw

Motoki Tamura, Daichi G. Suzuki

The paper uses AChE staining and gene expression analysis to show that the lamprey's ramus subpharyngeus contains motor fibers, suggesting a reorganization in the anterior craniofacial region during jaw evolution.
