Distribution of argininosuccinate synthetase-like immunoreactive neurons in the rat myenteric plexus: a whole mount study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The distribution of argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS)-like immunoreactive neurons in the myenteric plexus of the rat alimentary tract were immunocytochemically studied using whole-mount tissues. The present study revealed ASS-like immunoreactive meshworks of ganglia and interconnecting nerve strands in the myenteric plexus of almost all parts of the alimentary tract. ASS-like immunoreactive neurons constituted about 11% of the myenteric cell.

Age-related changes of calbindin D-28k-immunoreactive neurons in the myenteric plexus of gerbil duodenum.
We examined the age-related changes of calbindin D-28k (CB)-immunoreactive neurons and overall populations of neurons in the myenteric plexus of gerbil duodenum using whole mount preparations and immunohistochemistry. The circumference of duodenum increased age-dependently. CB-immunoreactive neurons were observed in all groups, and most of them had the Dogiel type II morphology. The fully devel...
متن کاملMucosal acid challenge activates nitrergic neurons in myenteric plexus of rat stomach.
We tested the hypothesis that intrinsic neurons of the rat gastric myenteric plexus can be activated by an acid (HCl) challenge of the mucosa. Activated neurons were visualized by immunohistochemical detection of c-Fos, a marker for neuronal excitation. The neurochemical identity of the neurons activated by the HCl challenge was determined by colocalizing c-Fos with a marker for excitatory path...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical demonstration of GABAergic neurons in the enteric nervous system.
Application of a highly specific antiserum against GABA to whole-mount preparations of the guinea pig and rat myenteric plexus resulted in discrete and unambiguous immunolabeling of a subpopulation of myenteric neuronal cell bodies and fibers. The anti-GABA antiserum, which was raised against GABA conjugated by glutaraldehyde to BSA, was applied to glutaraldehyde-fixed whole mounts and subseque...
متن کاملEffect of age on the myosin-V immunoreactive myenteric neurons of rats ileum.
Alterations in the gastrointestinal neuromuscular function related to age have been demonstrated in human and animal models. This study analyzes the effects of the aging process on the area of the neuronal cell bodies of the myenteric plexus in the antimesenteric and intermediate regions of the ileal circumference of Wistar, 12 month-old in comparison 3 month-old animals. The ileum was removed ...
متن کاملAcute cold exposure induces vagally mediated Fos expression in gastric myenteric neurons in conscious rats.
Acute cold exposure-induced activation of gastric myenteric neurons in conscious rats was examined on longitudinal muscle-myenteric plexus whole mount preparations. Few Fos-immunoreactive (IR) cells (<1/ganglion) were observed in 24-h fasted rats semirestrained at room temperature. Cold exposure (4 degrees C) for 1-3 h induced a time-related increase of Fos-IR cells in corpus and antral myenter...
