摘要：

The effect of 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME) treatment on the nerve elements of the small intestine has been investigated in old mice. In control animals only a few synapses and a very small number of vesicles were found in the nerve terminals. Some of the nerve fibers were observed to be degenerating. After drinking 2-ME daily for 17 months, both the number of synapses and vesicles within the nerve terminals increased. No degenerated fibers wer observed. It is assumed that 2-ME has a beneficial influence on the peripheral intestinal nervous system increasing the number of synapses and the vesicle population in the nerve terminals. © 1990.
