Objective To observe the expression of Nogo66 receptor （NgR）in ratsprime; retina during the postnatal development． Methods The expression of NgR in 48 rats were observed by immunofluorescence histochemistry and laserconfocal microscopy 0, 3, 7, 14, 21, 35, 49, 63 days after birth, with 6 rats in each group, respectively． Results The expression of NgR is positive in the retina in the whole duration of growth, and the fluorescence pigmentation was located around the ganglion cell nuclaear. Conclusion The positive expression of NgR suggests that the interaction of NgR and CNS myelin inhibitors not only inhibit neuronal plasticity but also promote it, which could regulate neuronal plasticity.
