  • Title: The acetylcholinesterase reaction and catecholamine fluorescence in the glomus cells of rat carotid body.
    Author: Korkala O, Waris T.
    Journal: Experientia; 1977 Oct 15; 33(10):1363-4. PubMed ID: 908418.
    Abstract:
    The presence of both acetylcholinesterase reaction and glyoxylic acid-induced fluorescence of catecholamines in the same glomus cells of rat carotid body was demonstrated using combined histochemical methods. A suggestion is made that the glomus cells have both excitatory and inhibitory effects on the chemosensory nerve via acetylcholine and catecholamines, respectively.
