Abstract: | Immunocytochemistry at the electronmicroscopic level was used to identify and examine substance P and neurotensin-containing perikarya and dendrites in the central amygdaloid nucleus of the rat. Following unilateral transection of the stria terminalis between the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis and the amygdala, degenerated nerve terminals were present in the ipsilateral central amygdaloid nucleus. These degenerated boutons were associated with both perikarya and dendrites of substance P and neurotensin-positive cells as well as unlabeled neurons. |
