Journal ArticleDOI

Immunohistochemical evidence for the existence of adrenaline neurons in the rat brain

TL;DR: The hypothesis is given that the PNMT containing neurons represent A containing neurons, and that A may act as a neurotransmitter in the rat brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Demonstration of central γ-aminobutyrate-containing nerve terminals by means of antibodies against glutamate decar☐ylase

TL;DR: The findings underline the existence of a new type of γ-aminobutyrate-containing Golgi type I neuron, controlling activity in the substantia innominata and in the outflow from Calleja's islands of the olfactory tubercle and the view that γ -aminobUTyrate may play a role in synaptic processes in all parts of the brain and the spinal cord.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of intrathecal galanin and C-fiber stimulation on the flexor reflex in the rat.

TL;DR: The results illustrate the complex effect of GAL on the spinal cord, possibly exhibiting a biphasic effect and the possibility that the observed effects are related to primary sensory afferents containing not only GAL but also CGRP, and/or to local GAL neurons in the dorsal horn is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substance P-containing primary sensory neurons projecting to the inferior mesenteric ganglion: evidence from combined retrograde tracing and immunohistochemistry.

TL;DR: It is suggested that substance P can be released from peripheral, sensory nerve endings, inducing changes in the membrane potential of sympathetic neurons, strongly supporting the view that at least some of the substance P fibres in the inferior mesenteric ganglion are of sensory nature.
