By combining the retrograde axonal transport of a fluorescent dye with nerve growth factor (NGF) receptor or choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) immunocytochemistry, we show that the cholinergic neurons that project most strongly to the basolateral nucleus of the amygdala in the ferret do not possess NGF receptor immunoreactivity in their soma and are situated in the ventral striatum, an area known to receive a massive reciprocal projection from the basolateral nucleus of the amygdala.
通过将荧光染料的逆行轴突运输与神经生长因子(NGF)受体或胆碱乙酰转移酶(ChAT)免疫细胞化学相结合,我们发现,雪貂中向杏仁核基底外侧核投射最强的胆碱能神经元,其胞体不具有NGF受体免疫反应性,且位于腹侧纹状体,该区域已知会接受来自杏仁核基底外侧核的大量相互投射。
