Parasympathetic innervation of the thymus: a histochemical and immunocytochemical study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The presence of parasympathetic nerve supply to the thymus has been demonstrated by histochemical and immunocytochemical methods using antibodies against cholineacetyl transferase. Fine nerve fibres have been observed both in the thymic parenchyma and around the blood vessels. The role of the parasympathetic nerve supply to the thymus is briefly discussed.

Intrinsic innervation and dopaminergic markers after experimental denervation in rat thymus
The aim of this study was to examine rat thymus innervation using denervation techniques and to explore the related micro-anatomical localization of dopamine, D1, D2 receptors and dopamine membrane transporter (DAT). In the thymus subcapsular region, the parenchymal cholinergic fibers belong exclusively to phrenic nerve branching. No somatic phrenic nerve branching was detected in any other ana...
متن کاملAlteration in postnatal development of masseter innervation in hypothyroid rats
The thyroid hormones have profound effects on the development of neuromuscular system. These hormones exert their influence on both muscle fibers and related motoneurons during development. Masseter is one of the most important muscles for mastication in mammals. Thyroid hormone deficiency 3 weeks after birth, the period in which an alteration from sucking to biting occurs, could influence the ...

متن کاملAutonomic innervation of the pancreas in diabetic and non-diabetic rats. A new view on intramural sympathetic structural organization.
Using histochemical and immunocytochemical methods the intramural neural tissue of the pancreas was investigated in non-diabetic and in alloxan-diabetic rats. It was demonstrated that the non-diabetic pancreas contains an average of 2.71 cells/mm3 tissue that react positive for activity of acetylcholinesterase and 2.38 cells/mm3 tissue that show monoamine oxidase activity. Both cholinergic and ...
