Abstract excerpt
Avian embryonic sympathetic ganglia possess both catecholaminergic and cholinergic features and can synthesize noradrenaline (NAd) and acetylcholine (ACh) simultaneously. In the present study we sought to determine (1) whether or not this coproduction of NAd and ACh corresponds to the existence o...
