Abstract:
VIP-like immunoreactive neurons have been found within the prostate and major pelvic ganglia of the male rats; they are of two different sizes. Moreover many VIP-like nerve fibers were found around the perikarya. On the basis of present data it is suggested that VIP-like prostatic nerves arise from both pelvic ganglia and intraprostatic neurons.
