After injection into the thoracic spinal cord of the rabbit, gold particles coupled to concanavalin A were found in the rostral ventrolateral medulla in neurons which contained neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactivity. These cells have previously been shown to belong to the C1 catecholamine (presumably adrenaline)- synthesizing group. Nerve terminals in the intermediolateral column contained both tyrosine hydroxylase and neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactivity. When fast blue was injected into the adrenal gland the retrogradely labeled preganglionic neurons were shown to be surrounded by nerve terminals containing neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactivity. Our results indicate that at least some of these terminals derive from C1 neurons which also synthesize neuropeptide Y.
将与伴刀豆球蛋白A偶联的金颗粒注入兔胸段脊髓后，在延髓头端腹外侧含有神经肽Y样免疫反应性的神经元中发现了这些金颗粒。这些细胞先前已被证明属于C1儿茶酚胺（可能是肾上腺素）合成组。中间外侧柱中的神经末梢同时含有酪氨酸羟化酶和神经肽Y样免疫反应性。当将快蓝注入肾上腺时，逆行标记的节前神经元被显示被含有神经肽Y样免疫反应性的神经末梢所包围。我们的结果表明，这些末梢中至少有一些来自也合成神经肽Y的C1神经元。
