Tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive intrinsic neurons in the Auerbach's and Meissner's plexuses of humans
Abstract
We carried out an immunohistochemical study of the Auerbach's and Meissner's plexuses of the human alimentary tract, using antiserum against tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), a rate-limiting enzyme of the catecholamine-synthesizing pathway. TH-immunoreactive intrinsic neuronal cell bodies were observed in both plexuses in almost all parts of the alimentary tract, being most frequent in the Auerbach's plexus of the lower esophagus.
