Abstract excerpt
Sympathetic ganglia in the adult rat contain various populations of nerve cells which demonstrate plasticity with respect to their transmitter phenotype. The plasticity of the neuronal cell bodies and of the small intensely fluorescent cells in the superior cervical and stellate ganglia in response to hypoxia in vivo (10% O2 for seven days) was assessed by studying the expression of catecholamines and vasoactive...
