Summary The distribution of monoamines in the hypothalamus of the Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) has been studied using a histochemical fluorescence technique. In the posterior hypothalamus catecholamine-containing nerve fibres are localised in the nucleus tuberis and nucleus hypothalamicus posterior medialis and are linked by fluorescent tracts running in the stratum cellulare internum. Further tracts may be traced from the nucleus tuberis around the base of the third ventricle to the sub-ependymal layer of the median eminence, where they then appear to pass through the hypothalamo-hypophysial neurosecretory tract to terminate in the palisade zone on the portal vascular bed. The innervation of the palisade layer by catecholamines is sparse. The fluorescent terminals are spread evenly throughout both the anterior and posterior divisions of the median eminence. There is no monoamine innervation of the pars nervosa. The paraventricular organ has both 5-hydroxytryptamine- and catecholamine-containing cell bodies and axons may be traced into the region of the nucleus hypothalamicus posterior medialis. In the anterior hypothalamus the neurosecretory paraventricular nucleus contains many catecholamine nerve fibres and terminals. These are linked by fibre tracts to the nucleus basalis and to the nucleus hypothalamicus posterior medialis. The supraoptic nucleus is less well innervated although a dense accumulation of fibres lies in the preoptic recess. The latter is thought to give rise to long axons which pass in association with the neurosecretory tract to end in the nucleus tuberis.Supported by a Grant (AG 24/36) from The Agricultural Research Council.

Topography of adrenergic neural fibres and adrenodependent structures in lymphoid organs of some mammals (rat, cat, dog, guinea-pig, golden hamster) has been studied by means of Falck's method with other histochemical methods applied simultaneously. In thymus, spleen, tonsils, lymph nodes and appendix adrenergic innervation is performed at the expense of adventitial vascular plexus and some neural fibres directed towards the organs' parenchyma. In the parenchyma of the lymphoid organs some fluorescent interfollicular macrophages and intrafollicular cells with serotonin and catecholamines in their cytoplasm were detected spectroscopically. These two types of cells respond differently to increasing amount of free amines in the organism. Orthochromic mast cells and elastic fibres also possess fluoresent properties which are connected with the presence of serotonin and catecholamines in the lymphoid organs. 相似文献

Summary The distribution of nerves showing neuropeptide Y (NPY)-like immunoreactivity in the cardiovascular system of elasmobranchs and teleosts has been investigated. Two species of teleosts, the rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) and the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), and three species of elasmobranchs, the spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias), the little skate (Raja erinacea) and the starry ray (Raja radiata), were used in this study. An innervation of the cardiovascular system by an NPY-like substance was found only in the two species of Raja. A rich innervation was encountered in these skates, with the highest density of fibres in the wall of the ventricle, the conus arteriosus, the coeliac artery and smaller mesenterial vessels. In the vessels, the fibres formed a plexus at the adventitio-mediol border. Few fibres were found in the walls of the dorsal aorta, the sinus venosus and the atrium, and no fibres were observed in the walls of the ventral aorta. Falck-Hillarp fluorescence histochemistry showed the presence of a rich innervation of arteries and arterioles of the gut by catecholamine-containing nerve fibres. 相似文献

Cellular localization of monoamines in the median eminence and the infundibular stem of some mammals
Kjell Fuxe 《Cell and tissue research》1963,61(5):710-724
Summary A histochemical analysis of the monoamines which are strongly accumulated in the median eminence and the proximal part of infundibular stem of all species examined (mouse, rat, guinea pig, hamster, rabbit, and cat) was performed with the help of a highly specific and sensitive fluorescence method. Strong evidence was obtained for the view that the monoamines are localized in very high concentrations to the terminal parts of non-sympathetic nerve fibres, which — mainly at least — converge to the primary plexus of the hypophyseal portal system. The capillaries are densely and closely surrounded by the nerve fibres.Pharmacological experiments, involving the administration of reserpine, nialamide, m-tyrosine and -methyl-m-tyrosine, furnished good evidence for the view that primary catecholamines, probably mainly DA but also NA, are the predominant monoamines present. The experiments also revealed the existence of catecholamine-containing nerve cells in the arcuate nuclei and the ventral portion of the anterior periventricular nuclei. These nerve cells, situated in the regions where the tubero-infundibular tract arises, may be the cell bodies of adrenergic neurons to which the amine-containing nerve fibres at least partly belong.The findings indicate that primary catecholamines are released to the primary plexus of the hypophyseal portal system and thus transported to the anterior lobe. These amines may consequently act as neuro-humoral transmittors for the regulation of the activity of the anterior pituitary. — No direct adrenergic innervation of the cells in the pars tuberalis and anterior lobe was found. The portal vesstes in the pars tuberalis receive a very sparse adrenergic innervation and the vessels in the anterior lobe receive no or very few adrenergic nerves. Pars intermedia, on the other hand, may have a non-sympathetic adrenergic innervation.The Following Abbreviations are Used DA

The fluorescent histochemical technique was used to examine the presence of dopamine 1 h after injection into the lateral hypothalamus which had been depleted of catecholamines by repeated injections of 6-hydroxydopamine. There was considerably more fluorescence at the dopamine injection site which had been previously treated with 6-hydroxydopamine than at the contralateral site treated with saline. These results suggest that the destruction of catecholamine containing nerve fibres from the hypothalamus may impair the ability of brain tissue to remove amines which are produced endogenously during degeneration. This could explain why amine accumulation produced during degeneration of catecholamine-containing neurons can remain for several weeks after the parent cells, hypothesized to have produced the accumulating amine, have died. 相似文献

The identification of an extrinsic cardiac innervation in Protopterus has been reported for the first time. It has been based on histological, histochemical and ultrastructural methods. The heart of Protopterus receives a rich cholinergic parasympathic innervation which ramifies in the atria and the ventricle. The induced fluorescence did'nt permit us to detect any mono-aminergic fibres ; meanwhile this method has enabled us to distinguish a particular type of cells containing catecholamines in the heart. 相似文献

Summary The innervation of human lower respiratory tract was studied with special emphasis on airways with sodium-potassium glyoxylic acid (SPG) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) methods to demonstrate catecholamine-containing and acetylcholinesterase-containing nerve fibers. AChE-method revealed a rich network of cholinesterase positive nerves both inside the bronchial glands where they run around and between the acini, and the airway smooth muscle from secondary bronchi to terminal bronchioli. No AChE-positive fibers were found in connection with the blood vessels or within the epithelium of bronchi or bonchioli. The AChE-positive nerve fibers in bronchial smooth muscle greatly outnumbered those containing catecholamine. The SPG-method revealed the presence of adrenergic nerves from the level of secondary bronchi to that of terminal bronchioli. These nerve fibers were most abundant in bronchial glands, where their amount was equal and distribution similar to those of AChE-containing nerve fibers. Outside the glands adrenergic fibers were constantly seen in connection with the bronchial blood vessels in connective tissues surrounding bronchi. A few nerve fibers were also present in airway smooth muscle from the secondary bronchi to terminal bronchioli. 相似文献

The presence of adrenergic innervation was investigated in four different vascular segments of the neotenic tiger salamander, Ambystoma tigrinum, by histofluorescent staining for catecholamines. The segments were the respiratory section of the gill, the branchial shunt vessels, a vascular plexus in the pulmonary artery, and the dorsal aorta. No adrenergic fibers were detected in the respiratory section of the gill or the pulmonary arterial plexus. In contrast, the branchial shunt vessels contained both adrenergic varicosities and catecholamine-containing cell bodies. These cells resemble Type I cells of the mammalian carotid body and amphibian carotid labyrinth. Adrenergic innervation of the dorsal aorta was sparse and restricted to the adventitia. The results suggest that adrenergic nerves may directly regulate blood flow in the gill, and thus gas exchange, by controlling vascular resistance of the branchial shunts. The contractile state of the dorsal aorta may also be under adrenergic control. In addition, it is suggested that the adrenergic cells of the branchial shunts may serve a receptor function in being sensitive to arterial blood gases. 相似文献

Summary The radioautographic technique has been used to study the axonal migration of catecholamines in sympathetic fibres of the sciatic nerve of rats after ligature. A first series of experiments aimed at ascertaining the capacity of the proximal portion of adrenergic fibres to take up and store exogenous tritiated catecholamines (3H-DOPA; 3H-DA and 3H-NA) 3 to 22 hours after ligation. The results are qualitatively similar in rats pretreated and non-pretreated with IMAO, but the intensity of the radioautographic reaction is lower in the latter cases. Most of the labeled axons are filled mainly with vesicular and tubular profiles of endoplasmic reticular origin, large dense bodies (probably lysosomes) and/or mitochondria. The silver grains are generally superimposed on the vesicular and/or the tubular profiles, but in some cases on the large dense bodies, suggesting that exogenous catecholamines can be stored in lysosomes. The question whether SGV specifically store catecholamines also in the modified adrenergic fibres has been investigated in KMnO4 fixed material. These results show that beside a large number of fibres in which there is a strict correlation between labeling and SGV, some fibres containing SGV do not retain the 3H-NA. Conversely some fibres which contain mainly agranular vesicles display radioautographic reaction. Therefore, in case of ligated fibres, SGV cannot be considered the specific organelles for storage of catecholamines.The axonal migration of labeled catecholamines has been studied in animals pretreated with IMAO. A moderate, but selective, labeling is present in the proximal portion of sciatic fibres of rats in which administration of labeled catecholamine preceeded of 2 hours the ligature and this was performed 22 hours before fixation.From these combined types of experiments, it is concluded that despite the presence of all the structures necessary for the storage of a high amount of catecholamines in the modified adrenergic fibres, only a small fraction of catecholamines accumulated above the ligature has been transported by axonal migration. Therefore, the axonal migration of catecholamines appears as an epiphenomenon related to the distal migration of enzymatic and storage proteins from the perikaryon.Part of this work was presented to the 84th Annual Session of American Association of Anatomists (Sotelo and Taxi, 1971).Some of the electron microscopic observations were made at the Unité 106 I.N.S.E.R.M. 相似文献

Distribution of monoaminergic structures in the kidney of two frog species has been studied by means of the fluorescent-histochemical method. Neural fibers containing catecholamines are revealed in the renal artery wall, in the portal veins walls, in the glomerular arteriole walls. No catecholamine-containing neural fibers have been revealed in the glomerular capillaries. The catecholamine-containing neural fibers tightly adjoining the walls of the proximal and distal parts of the nephron canaliculi have been revealed. The neural structures containing indolamines are not observed. 相似文献

The innervation of Rana ridibunda esophagus myenteric plexuses has been studied by the following methods: demonstration of cholinesterase activity; FIF method for catecholamines; immunohistochemistry for VIP, SP and SOM, and conventional electron microscopy. The cholinergic innervation is important in the esophagus wall where, in addition to the well known extrinsic component, there is a rich intrinsic plexus with cells and fibres widely distributed. The esophagus, together with the intestine, are the Rana gut portions where the adrenergic component is more broadly expressed. The adrenergic innervation seems to be almost entirely of extrinsic origin. We have shown that, for the tested peptides, there is an intrinsic innervation represented by VIP, SP and SOM like plexuses. We do not discard nonetheless an extrinsic component. The ultrastructure reveals the morphological characteristics of the enteric neurons as well as the fine inter-relationships between the nervous elements and the functional components of the esophagic wall. 相似文献

Summary Adrenergic nerve fibres were demonstrated in the connective tissue of the rabbit coronar glomera by means of the formaldehyde-induced fluorescence technique for catecholamines. This type of innervation is similar to the adrenergic nerve supply to the rabbit and cat carotid body. Adrenergic fibres terminate subendothelially and only a few can be traced to type I cells in the glomera coronaria. The sympathetic innervation of the ascending aorta is exceedingly sparse in contrast to the pulmonary trunk, while vasa vasorum of the ascending aorta exhibit a dense sympathetic innervation. 相似文献

Summary A detailed study of the origin and distribution of sympathetic fibres in the distal colon of the guinea-pig has been made using the fluorescent histochemical method for localizing catecholamines. The extrinsic adrenergic fibres of the colonie sympathetic nerves follow the inferior mesenteric artery and its branches to the colon. Some of the extrinsic adrenergic fibres are associated with the parasympathetic fibres of the pelvic nerves near the colon. Complete adrenergic denervation follows the removal of the inferior mesenteric ganglion or the destruction of the nerves running with the inferior mesenteric artery.No fluorescent fibres, other than those associated with blood vessels, were observed in air-dried stretch preparations of the isolated longitudinal muscle. However, a substantial number of varicose, terminal fibres, not associated with blood vessels, were observed in the circular muscle. Some varicose fibres, apart from those associated with ganglion cells, were observed in the myenteric plexus. These fibres were seen in the bundles of nerves running between the nodes of the plexus and also as single fibres which branched from the plexus to end in areas free of ganglion cells.Three plexuses of adrenergic nerve fibres have been distinguished in the submucosa: a dense plexus of terminal fibres innervating both the veins and arteries; a plexus consisting of innervated nodes of ganglion cells, connected by bundles of fluorescent and non-fluorescent nerves; and a plexus of varicose and non-varicose fibres, which is not associated with ganglion cells. Some groups of ganglion cells in the submucosa were without adrenergic innervation.A plexus of varicose fibres forms a meshwork in the lamina propria of the mucosa. The muscularis mucosae is sparsely innervated. Most of the blood vessels in the mucosa are not associated with adrenergic fibres. 相似文献

The distribution of catecholamines in the small and large intestine of flying foxes (Pteropus spp.) was investigated using glyoxylic-acid-induced fluorescence and immunohistochemical staining of tyrosine hydroxylase and dopamine--hydroxylase. Dense networks of varicose axons stained by each of these methods supplied blood vessels, the mucosa and both submucous and myenteric ganglia, but were scarce in the circular and longitudinal muscle. The majority (>90%) of submucous neuronal perikarya contained both enzymes and most of these also exhibited catecholamine fluorescence. Somata of similar staining characteristics were less common in the myenteric plexus, where single cells were found in only the minority of ganglia. All of the stained submucosal somata and mucosal axons contained vasoactive intestinal peptide, whereas catecholamine-containing axons that supplied the ganglia, external muscle and blood vessels did not. It is concluded that (1) there is dense catecholamine innervation of most tissues in the flyingfox intestine, similar to many other mammals, (2) mucosal axons originate from enteric catecholamine neurons, not found in other mammals, and (3) axons supplying the blood vessels and enteric ganglia are probably of sympathetic origin and can be distinguished from the intrinsic catecholamine-containing axons by their lack of vasoactive intestinal peptide. The roles and interactions of these two types of catecholamine innervation in the control of secretion and motility remain to be identified. 相似文献

The lingual and papillary mucosa innervation has been studied in the buffalo by histochemical and immunohistochemical techniques and by gold impregnation method of Ruffini. In lingual mucosa the presence of ganglionic structures has been noticed in which there are numerous cellular bodies and bundles of fibres variously directed. Particularly in the vallate papillae, the papillary stroma contains myelinic and unmyelinated fibres and terminal nerve corpuscles. Along stromal myelinic fibres the presence of the proteins S-100 and NF has been demonstrated. 相似文献

Summary A glyoxylic acid method using cryostat sections to demonstrate catecholaminergic fibres of the central nervous system was modified to show the extent of the adrenergic innervation in rat brown adipose tissue. It revealed prominent interlacing fluorescent parenchymal fibres surrounding individual adipocytes. The density of this network of fine fibres was not evident using earlier techniques. The new method also confirmed the dense networks of adrenergic fibres associated with arterial vessels. Its specificity was verified by simultaneously performing radioenzymatic determinations of tissue catecholamine levels and histochemical studies of brown adipose tissue from normal and sympathectomized rats. Chemical sympathectomy with 6-hydroxydopamine resulted in a pronounced decrease in brown adipose tissue and heart catecholamine (noradrenalin and dopamine) levels. Significantly, in brown adipose tissue of sympathectomized animals no fluorescence could be detected in terminal nerves of either the parenchyma or those of vascular smooth muscles. Nevertheless, some intense fluorescence was seen in axon bundles. The findings suggest that catecholamines of the parenchymal innervation form a larger proportion of the total catecholamine content of brown adipose tissue than was previously believed, provide stronger support for direct control of the function of multilocular adipocytes, and also confirm unpublished data reporting considerable dopamine content in brown adipose tissue. 相似文献

Cat hindlimb muscles, deprived of their somatic innervation, have been examined with fluorescence and electron microscopy and in teased, silver preparations; normal diaphragm muscles have been examined with electron microscopy only. An autonomic innervation was found to be supplied to both intra- and extrafusal muscle fibres. It is not present in all muscle spindles and is not supplied at all to tendon organs. Fluorescence microscopy revealed a noradrenergic innervation distributed to extrafusal muscle fibres and some spindles. On the basis of the vesicle content of varicosities the extrafusal innervation was identified as noradrenergic (32 axons traced), and the spindle innervation as involving noradrenergic, cholinergic and non-adrenergic axons (14 traced). Some of the noradrenergic axons that innervate spindles and extrafusal muscle fibres are branches of axons that also innervate blood vessels. We cannot say whether there are any noradrenergic axons that are exclusively distributed to intra- or extrafusal muscle fibres. The varicosities themselves may be in neuroeffective association with striated muscle fibres only, or with both striated fibres and the smooth muscle cells in the walls of blood vessels. The functional implications of this direct autonomic innervation of muscle spindles and skeletal muscle fibres are discussed and past work on the subject is evaluated. 相似文献

The adrenergic innervation of the urinary bladder of normal female and pregnant rats has been studied using a fluorescence histochemical method. The bladder is richly innervated by adrenergic nerve fibres as is evidenced by the presence of numerous adrenergic nerves in the adventitia, musculosa and submucosa. However, adrenergic nerve cells could not be observed. During pregnancy, adrenergic nerve fibres showed signs of degeneration, as most of the nerve fibres disappeared and the surviving fibres were much swollen. 10 days after parturition the pattern and density of adrenergic innervation became almost similar to those of the control animals. 相似文献

In the molluscs, dopamine is very probably a chemical transmitter at the level of both the central nervous system and certain peripheral structures. The heart of Helix pomatia does not have any intrinsic innervation, but it receives extrinsic innervation from fibres coming from the visceral nerve. Formaldehyde fluorescence histochemistry localizes the cardiac catecholamines in some of these fibres and in their endings. However, dopamine, which dominates, does not seem to be a transmitter involved in cardioregulation in the same way as 5-hydroxytryptamine. The quantities of active dopamine (stimulants) cannot be compared with those required for a neurotransmitter. This is also true for noradrenaline. Dopamine more certainly plays a role at the metabolic and tropic level by acting within a more or less short period as a regulator of cellular activity and contractility. The Helix heart is a suitable model for future research in this field. 相似文献

Anatomical studies were conducted to characterize the source, type, and distribution of parathyroid gland innervation in European starlings. Denervation experiments demonstrated that the parathyroid glands and adjacent carotid bodies are innervated by nerve fibers originating in the nodose ganglion of the vagus nerve. In the parathyroid parenchyma, these fibers terminate adjacent to chief cells or near vascular smooth muscle. Vagal fibers also form synapses with catecholamine-containing glomus cells of the carotid body. Blood that first perfuses the carotid body subsequently perfuses the parathyroid parenchyma. These observations suggest that vagal innervation may influence parathyroid function in starlings either through direct chief cell innervation or through alteration of vascular perfusion. A neurohemal relationship also may exist between the carotid body and parathyroids. 相似文献
