Nerve fibres immunoreactive to neuropeptide Y (NPY), tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) were demonstrated in rat bone and adjacent tissues. The distribution of NPY- and TH-positive fibres differed from that of VIP-positive fibres. NPY- and TH-immunoreactive fibres were almost exclusively found close to or within the blood vessel walls, mostly in the vicinity of the epiphyseal plate, but also in the Volkmann canals. VIP-positive fibres were predominantly present in the epiphysis and periosteum and only occasionally around blood vessels. This study demonstrates that bone and surrounding tissues have a supply of both noradrenergic and peptide-containing nerves. The differential distribution of these nerves may reflect specific roles in the local regulation of bone physiology, such as blood flow, bone formation or resorption.

D009478 Neuropeptide Y A 36-amino acid peptide present in many organs and in many sympathetic noradrenergic neurons. It has vasoconstrictor and natriuretic activity and regulates local blood flow, glandular secretion, and smooth muscle activity. The peptide also stimulates feeding and drinking behavior and influences secretion of pituitary hormones.
