Calbindin immunoreactivity of enteric neurons in the guinea-pig ileum.

Abstract:

:Previous studies have identified Dogiel type II neurons with cell bodies in the myenteric plexus of guinea-pig ileum to be intrinsic primary afferent neurons. These neurons also have distinctive electrophysiological characteristics (they are AH neurons) and 82-84% are immunoreactive for calbindin. They are the only calbindin-immunoreactive neurons in the plexus. Neurons with analogous shape and electrophysiology are found in submucosal ganglia, but, with antibodies used in previous studies, they lack calbindin immunoreactivity. An antiserum that is more effective in revealing calbindin in the guinea-pig enteric nervous system has been reported recently. In the present work, we found that this antiserum reveals the same population that was previously identified in myenteric ganglia, and does not reveal any further population of myenteric nerve cells. In submucosal ganglia, 9-10% of nerve cells were calbindin immunoreactive with this antiserum. The submucosal neurons with calbindin immunoreactivity were also immunoreactive for choline acetyltransferase, but not for neuropeptide Y (NPY) or vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP). Small calbindin-immunoreactive neurons (average profile 130 microm2) were calretinin immunoreactive, whereas the large calbindin-immunoreactive neurons (average profile 330 microm2) had tachykinin (substance P) immunoreactivity. Calbindin immunoreactivity was seen in about 50% of the calretinin neurons and 40% of the tachykinin-immunoreactive submucosal neurons. It is concluded that, in the guinea-pig ileum, only one class of myenteric neuron, the AH/Dogiel type II neuron, is calbindin immunoreactive, but, in the submucosal ganglia, calbindin immunoreactivity occurs in cholinergic, calretinin-immunoreactive, secretomotor/vasodilator neurons and AH/Dogiel type II neurons.
