The presence of Cajal-Retzius cells in the adult human prefrontal and visual cortices has been demonstrated with calcium binding protein immunocytochemistry and NADPH-diaphorase histochemistry. These cells expressed parvalbumin, calbindin and calretinin calcium binding proteins and displayed NADPH-diaphorase enzyme activity. The three basic morphological profiles-horizontal, pyriform and multipolar-were observed. The morphologies of labelled cells resembled those of neurons observed in Golgi

The persistence of Cajal-Retzius cells in the adult cerebral cortex supports the idea that they undergo developmental dilution rather than postnatal degeneration.
