ganglia in rabbit atria Scientific Supervisor: Hermanas Inokaitis, Institute of Anatomy …

The anterior aorta is rich in axons and axonal endings originating from the nervus corporis
cardiacum (NCC) and the corpus cardiacum (CC). Neurosecretory granules in the NCC …

Since the vagus nerve is regarded as the only pathway of effector innervation to the heart in
teleosts, the teleostean atrium was chosen as a model of a purely parasympathetic …

Introduction. The heart innervation is made up of plexo-ganglionic formation containing
sympathetic, parasympathetic, and sensory components. We examined the distribution and …

Electron microscopic observations of the lymph hearts of tadpoles and yearling frogs of
Rana temporaria showed that mast cells (MCs) were present not only between muscle fibers …

The distribution and function of an Aplysia cardioexcitatory peptide, NdWFamide, were
examined in the nervous system of pulmonate snails. We chemically identified the authentic …

It has been established that Purkinje cells in the bovine heart have abundant intermediate
filaments positive for desmin antibody within their cytoplasm. However, there were no …

As an excitatory transmitter system, the glutamatergic transmitter system controls excitability
and conductivity of neurons. Since both cardiomyocytes and neurons are excitable cells, we …

This study was performed to investigate the subcellular changes of rat atrial muscle cells by
immobilization stress. Sprague-Dawley rats weighting 200 gm were immobilized in small …
