  • Title: The ultrastructure of somatostatin-immunoreactive cell bodies, nerve fibers and terminals in the dorsal horn of rat spinal cord.

    Abstract:
    The distribution and ultrastructure of somatostatin-immunoreactive neurons, nerve fibers and axon terminals in the dorsal horn of rat thoracic spinal cord were studied by immunohistochemistry at both the light and electron microscopic levels. Somatostatin-immuno reactive neurons were predominantly observed in Rexed laminae I and II of the dorsal horn of spinal cord. Somatostatin-immunoreactive electron dense peroxidase material was concentrated in the Golgi apparatus and rough endoplasmic reticulum of the somatostatin-immunoreactive neurons, and was characteristically sparse in other regions of the cytoplasm. In the somatostatin-immunoreactive fibers and terminals, immunoreactive electron dense material was concentrated in the microtubules and large synaptic vesicles.
