GAMMA GLOBULIN-LIKE IMMUNOREA-CTIVE NEURONS IN THE RABBIT SUPERIOR CERVICAL SYMPATHETIC GANGLION / 解剖学报

ABSTRACT

The relationship between ?-globulin and neurons in sympathetic ganglion was investigated. In the present study, the rabbit superior cervical ganglion neurons were found to react selectively with sheep antiserum to rabbit ?-globulin and appear to be stained deeply by immunocytochemical method. The existence of ?-globulin-like substance in these neurons was shown. These neurons are divided into four types according to the intensity of their staining.The significance and functional role of the different staining types are not clear and a further study is needed.
