Morphological and quantitative study of the intrinsic nerve plexuses of the canine trachea as revealed by immunohistochemical staining of protein gene product 9.5

Abstract: Background: The ganglionated nervous plexuses in the trachea play an important role in the regulation of respiration. Although the tracheal tissue of the dog has frequently been used in physiological and pharmacological studies, little is known about the morphology of the intrinsic nervous plexuses in the dog trachea and quantitative data about the ganglia and nerve cell bodies are lacking. The structure of the nervous plexuses and detailed morphometric data about the intrinsic neurons of the dog have not prev… Show more

“…1) and could be located without staining in most preparations. Furthermore, ganglia were distributed over the entire surface of the primary bronchus and not in separate plexuses, as reported for guinea pig (Lees et al, 1997;Canning and Fischer, 1997;Fischer et al, 1998), cat (Mitchell et al, 1989), dog (Yamamoto et al, 1998), and ferret (Coburn and Kalia, 1986;Dey et al, 1996;Dey et al, 1999) tracheal ganglia. Thus, the guinea pig bronchial nerve plexus provides an excellent preparation for characterization of physiological Myers, 1998), pharmacological Undem, 1993, 1996), and anatomical properties of parasympathetic innervation in smaller airways.…”

“…The average number of neuronal cell bodies within guinea pig bronchial ganglia differed from those reported for mouse tracheal ganglia (Cassell et al, 1986), but were similar to the number in ferret (Baker et al, 1986), dog (Yamamoto et al, 1998), or rat (Chiang, 1993) tracheal ganglia. In the guinea pig trachea, ganglia contain 2 to 30 neurons (Baluk and Gabella, 1989;Lees et al, 1997).…”

“…Section 1734 solely to indicate this fact. chea from the neighboring tissue was not designed to preserve the tracheal nerves or the longitudinal trunk parasympathetic ganglia attached to these nerves (2,52). At least in the ferret, the majority of the neurons in these ganglia are cholinergic and lack substance P expression (7).…”
