Age-related changes of enkephalinergic innervation of human sympathetic neurons.

Abstract:

:The age-related changes in the distribution of enkephalin-immunoreactive (ENK-IR) nerve fibers in relation to the principal neurons were studied in 23 human sympathetic ganglia from patients aged between 22 and 98 years. There were no age-related changes in the diameter of nerve cells and the packing density of the neurons did not change. There was an age-related decrease in the proportion of neurons innervated by enkephalin-containing fibers. In all age groups the neurons innervated by ENK-IR nerve fibers were larger than those neurons which were not surrounded by ENK-IR nerves. The pigment material in the enkephalin-innervated neurons was non-osmiophilic. The small neurons containing dark neuromelanin type of age pigment were not innervated by ENK-IR nerves. It is speculated that ENK-IR preganglionic nerves play a role in maintaining neuronal integrity of sympathetic neurons.

  • Relationship between glucose phosphorylating activities and erythrocyte age.

    abstract::Glucose phosphorylating activity of human erythrocytes quickly decreases during cell ageing; the electrophoretic pattern suggests that this fast decrease is due mainly to the isozyme II. We have shown that in the young cells only hexokinase I and II are responsible for the glucose phosphorylation, while in the old cel...
