摘要：

Superior cervical ganglia from 7 human cadavers (3-7 h post mortem) were immunostained for tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (DBH) and 14 different neuropeptides. The results show that ganglionic cells contain TH, DBH, neuropeptide Y (NPY), somatostatin, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). These substances were present predominantly within large ganglionic cells. Inside the ganglion, the number and topographic distribution of various types of immunoreactive cells differed from one another. NPY and CGRP immunoreactivities were found in some TH-positive cells, but that co-localization never exceeded the 30% of the TH cells. Leu-enkephalin showed a weak immunoreactivity, which was restricted to fibers or varicosities. Neuropeptides like substance P, dynorphin A and B, cholecystokinin, galanin, corticotropin-releasing factor, thyreotropin-releasing hormone, angiotensin II and neurotensin showed no immunoreactivity in the human superior cervical ganglion.
