Previous work has suggested the presence of a widespread, intrinsic cholinergic innervation of the spinal cord. A combination of retrograde axonal tract tracing and choline acetyltransferase immunocytochemistry was used to show that there is a propriospinal cholinergic innervation of the rat spinal cord that arises from short-range projections (spanning up to six spinal segments) of cholinergic neurons known as 'central canal' and 'partition' cells.
先前的研究表明脊髓存在广泛的内在胆碱能神经支配。采用逆行轴突束示踪和胆碱乙酰转移酶免疫细胞化学相结合的方法,显示大鼠脊髓存在固有脊髓胆碱能神经支配,其起源于被称为“中央管”和“分隔”细胞的胆碱能神经元的短程投射(跨越多达六个脊髓节段)。
