Small primary sensory neurons innervating epidermis and viscera display differential phenotype in the adult rat.

Abstract excerpt

Target tissues contribute to the phenotype and function of sensory neurons. Due to lack of appropriate markers for trkA expressing sensory axons and terminals, the detailed peripheral projection of these neurons is unclear. In this study, the peripheral projections of trkA immunoreactive neurons are characterized using the combined techniques of immunohistochemistry and retrograde tracing. We found approximately...
