  • Title: Calretinin-immunoreactivity in vagal and glossopharyngeal sensory neurons of the rat: distribution and coexistence with putative transmitter agents.
    Author: Ichikawa H, Jacobowitz DM, Winsky L, Helke CJ.
    Journal: Brain Res; 1991 Aug 23; 557(1-2):316-21. PubMed ID: 1720997.
    Abstract:
    Immunoreactivity for the calcium binding protein, calretinin (calretinin-ir), was demonstrated in cell bodies of vagal and glossopharyngeal sensory ganglia (jugular, petrosal, and nodose ganglia) and in associated nerve fibers. In the jugular and petrosal ganglia, many calretinin-ir neurons were also immunoreactive for calcitonin gene-related peptide and substance P. In the nodose ganglion, most of the calretinin-ir neurons lacked these peptides. None of the calretinin-ir neurons in these ganglia were also immunoreactive for tyrosine hydroxylase.
