  • Title: Origin of sympathetic and sensory innervation of the elbow joint in the rat: a retrograde axonal tracing study with wheat germ agglutinin conjugated horseradish peroxidase.
    Author: Widenfalk B, Elfvin LG, Wiberg M.
    Journal: J Comp Neurol; 1988 May 15; 271(3):313-8. PubMed ID: 2454963.
    Abstract:
    After injection of wheat germ agglutinin conjugated horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP) into the elbow joint of adult rats, labeled neurons were found in the stellate and the T2-T4 ganglia of the ipsilateral sympathetic trunk, and also in dorsal root ganglia at the C4-T4 levels. Most labeled sympathetic cells, 90% or more, were located in the stellate ganglion. The sensory innervation to the joint originated mainly from the dorsal root ganglia at the levels of C7-T1.
