abstract：:Bulbospinal C1 neurons are sympathoexcitatory and excited by substance P. However the substance P receptor (NK1 receptor), has been reported to be absent from the somata of C1 neurons. In this study, using double and triple labelling immunofluorescence and retrograde tracing, we provide evidence that the NK1 receptor ...
