Abstract:
Sympathetic innervation of the stomach was studied in rats by the method of retrograde axon transport of Fast Blue in postnatal ontogenesis. The number of labeled neurons increased in the first 10 days of life and then did not change until the senescence. All labeled neurons innervating the stomach contain the catecholamine synthesis enzyme, tyrosine hydroxylase. The proportion of labeled neuropeptide Y-immunopositive neurons did not change in the development, the percentage of labeled calbindin-immunoreactive neurons decreased in the first month of life.
