Peptidergic innervation of arterial chemoreceptors.
The peptidergic innervation of arterial chemoreceptor organs (the rat carotid body and vagal paraganglia; guinea pig carotid body) was studied immunohistochemically. Five different populations of nerve fibres in the guinea pig carotid body could be discriminated according to their origin and their chemical coding. The innervation pattern of the rat carotid body differed in some aspects. Compari...
متن کاملPeptidergic innervation of human epicardial coronary arteries.
The peptidergic innervation of proximal (internal diameter, > 0.8 mm) and distal (internal diameter, < 0.8 mm) regions of human epicardial coronary arteries was investigated by means of immunohistochemical, chromatographic, radioimmunological, and in vitro pharmacological techniques. The use of an antiserum to the general neuronal marker protein gene product 9.5 revealed that the proximal part ...
متن کاملPeptidergic innervation in the amphibian carotid labyrinth.
The amphibian carotid labyrinth, which corresponds to the mammalian carotid body and carotid sinus, is innervated by nerve fibers containing substance P (SP), calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), neuropeptide Y (NPY), FMRFamide (FMRF), and somatostatin (SOM). SP, CGRP, VIP, and NPY immunoreactive varicose fibers are more densely distributed in the per...
متن کاملPeptidergic innervation of the primate meibomian gland.
PURPOSE To localize and characterize nerves in primate meibomian glands using immunohistochemical staining for neuropeptides and neuronal enzymes. METHODS Upper eyelids were obtained from seven rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) and one cynomolgous monkey (Macaca fascicularis). The tissues were fixed either by immersion in Zamboni's fixative or by transcardiac perfusion with paraformaldehyde and...
متن کاملPlasticity of peptidergic innervation in healing rabbit medial collateral ligament.
BACKGROUND Denervation substantially impairs healing of the medial collateral ligament (MCL). Because normal ligaments are sparsely innervated, we hypothesized that neuropeptide-containing neurons would sprout or proliferate after ligament transection, followed by later regression with healing, in a manner analogous to blood vessels. METHODS We transected the right MCL in 9 mature female New ...
