Immunocytological localization of omega-agatoxin IVA (omega-aga IVA)-sensitive Ca2+ channels involved in glutamate release from growth cones of cultured rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons was studied with field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The omega-aga IVA-sensitive Ca2+ channels were visualized by labeling with immuno-gold particles (30 nm). FE-SEM and TEM images showed that immuno-gold particles were present in the area of growth cones as well as somata, and generally absent on neurite stem and fibroblasts. TEM images of vertical ultra-thin sections showed that the immuno-gold particles were present on the surface of the plasma membrane. Since the gold particles indicate the immunological presence of omega-aga IVA-sensitive Ca2+ channels, the Ca2+ channels involved in transmitter release are present on growth cones before making synapse formation.
