Histochemical method of cytochrome oxidase demonstration was used to study its distribution in frontal sections of tectum of the midbrain in cat in normal conditions and after unilateral enucleation. Basic layers of this formation were demonstrated in normal conditions similar to those revealed using classical histological methods. After unilateral enucleation rostral, middle and caudal parts of superior colliculus were stained differently. Contra- and ipsilateral surface layers in rostral and caudal parts were stained also with different intensity. Alteration of lightly and intensely stained patches appeared in middle part. Peculiarities of staining in cytochemical cytochrome oxidase demonstration in superior colliculus of tectum of the midbrain in enucleated animals are likely to reflect peculiarities of this structure afferentially by retinotectal, geniculotectal and geniculocortical fibres.
采用细胞色素氧化酶的组织化学显示方法，研究其在正常状态及单侧眼球摘除后猫中脑顶盖额状切片中的分布。在正常状态下，该结构的基本层显示情况与使用经典组织学方法所揭示的相似。单侧眼球摘除后，上丘的嘴侧、中间和尾侧部分染色不同。嘴侧和尾侧部分的对侧和同侧表层染色强度也不同。中间部分出现了淡染和深染斑块的改变。摘除眼球动物中脑顶盖的上丘在细胞化学显示细胞色素氧化酶时的染色特性，可能通过视网膜顶盖、外侧膝状体顶盖和外侧膝状体皮质纤维差异地反映该结构的特性。
