We provide evidence for axonal regeneration in the central nervous system (CNS) of the locust (Locusta migratoria). We followed the morphology of a small set of proctolin-immunoreactive neurons in the ventral nerve cord before and after crushing one cervical connective in the third instar. The proximal segments started sprouting within 3 days post lesion and grew into the suboesophageal ganglion within 9 days, covering a distance of approximately 2 mm. Within the suboesophageal ganglion, the regenerated neurites formed arborisations in the appropriate region which closely resemble the original shape. These findings will allow us to compare regeneration to the well-described embryonic development of axonal connectivity in this animal. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
