Calcitonin gene-related peptide-like immunoreactive sensory fibers form synaptic contact with sympathetic neurons in the rat celiac ganglion. 1987

The present study demonstrates synaptic contact between calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-like immunoreactive axon terminals and sympathetic neurons in the rat celiac ganglion. Our observations suggest that sensory ganglion neurons directly regulate the sympathetic activity via synapses, because CGRP immunoreactive (CGRPI) fibers in this ganglion are supplied by the sensory ganglia.

D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy

D005727 Ganglia, Spinal Sensory ganglia located on the dorsal spinal roots within the vertebral column. The spinal ganglion cells are pseudounipolar. The single primary branch bifurcates sending a peripheral process to carry sensory information from the periphery and a central branch which relays that information to the spinal cord or brain.
