Facilitation, augmentation, and potentiation of synaptic transmission at the superior cervical ganglion of the rabbit
The effect of repetitive stimulation on synaptic transmission was studied in the isolated superior cervical ganglion of the rabbit under conditions of reduced quantal content. Excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSP) were recorded with the sucrose gap technique to obtain estimates of transmitter release. Four components of increased transmitter release, with time constants of decay similar to ...
متن کاملStereological Study on the Neurons of Superior Cervical Sympathetic Ganglion in Diabetic Rats
Background: Most research on autonomic dysfunction of diabetes mellitus is conducted on ganglions innervating gastrointestinal (GI) tract and there are limited works focusing on cervical sympathetic ganglia. The effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the neurons of superior cervical sympathetic ganglion (SCSG) are investigated by stereological methods. Material and Methods: Female rats (n=72) ran...
متن کاملNeuron Culture from Mouse Superior Cervical Ganglion.
The rodent superior cervical ganglion (SCG) is a useful and readily accessible source of neurons for studying the mechanisms of sympathetic nervous system (SNS) development and growth in vitro. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) of early postnatal animals undergoes a great deal of remodeling and development; thus, neurons taken from mice at this age are primed to re-grow and establish synapti...
متن کاملDevelopment of the rat superior cervical ganglion: ganglion cell maturation.
The development of superior cervical ganglion cells has been studied in the fetal rat. Sympathetic cells appear first in thoracic sites and, one day later, in cervical sites; localized proliferation among these cells gives rise to the superior cervical and stellate ganglia. The maturation of superior cervical ganglion cells was examined by staining these neurons with horseradish peroxidase in f...
متن کاملNeurotransmitters and Their Receptors in the Rat Superior Cervical Ganglion
The superior cervical ganglion (SCG), the sympathetic organ innervating the carotid body (CB), lies at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery, near the CB. The ganglion is composed of functional subsets of neurons showing different sympathetic phenotypes. The expression of putative neurotransmitters and their receptors in the rat SCG was investigated at light microscopical level using imm...
