The distribution of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) in the individual nuclei of the rat brain stem was examined. Highest VIP concentrations in brain stem (greater than 1 ng/mg protein) are confined to dorsal regions, including periaqueductal gray and structures under the fourth ventricle. VIP concentrations are moderately high (0.8-1 ng/mg protein) in gracile nucleus, area postrema, nucleus of the solitary tract, motor nucleus of the XIIth, locus ceruleus and dorsal tegmental nucleus. Cerebellum and pontine nuclei contained only very low levels (less than 0.2 ng/mg protein) of VIP.
对大鼠脑干各个核团中血管活性肠肽(VIP)的分布进行了研究。脑干中VIP浓度最高(大于1 ng/mg蛋白质)的区域局限于背侧区域,包括导水管周围灰质和第四脑室下方的结构。薄束核、最后区、孤束核、舌下神经运动核、蓝斑和背侧被盖核中的VIP浓度中等偏高(0.8 - 1 ng/mg蛋白质)。小脑和脑桥核中仅含有极低水平(小于0.2 ng/mg蛋白质)的VIP。
