| Abstract: | The distribution of the serotonin 2A (5-HT2A) receptor in glial cells in the white matter of rat spinal cord was immunohistochemically examined with specific antibodies against the 5-HT2A receptor. 5-HT2A receptor-like immunoreactivity was detected in astrocytes that were identified by an antibody against the glial fibrillary acidic protein. In contrast, 5-HT2A receptor-like immunoreactivity was not observed in oligodendrocytes. |
