摘要
The distribution of tachykinin NK1 and NK3 receptors in the prefrontal (Brodmann area 9) and visual cortex (Brodmann area 17) of formalin-fixed postmortem human brain tissue was studied by immunohistochemistry. NK1-like immunoreactivity (NK1-LI) was observed as a thin band at the cortical surface and dots of NK1-LI localised on small non-pyramidal cells and in the neuropil (layers I-III). NK3-LI was found in beaded fibres and cells with astrocyte-like morphology in the superficial cortical layers and white matter. Dots of NK3-LI were prominent in the neuropil and on pyramidal (layers III/V) and non-pyramidal (layers V/VI) cells. The NK3-LI was more abundant and widespread than the NK1-LI. This is the first report of the distribution of the NK1 receptor in the prefrontal and visual cortex of the human brain by immunohistochemistry. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
