investigate the types of putative transmitters in pelvic neurons that project to the bladder …

Distribution of neurons in the major pelvic ganglion of the rat which supply the bladder, colon or penis

JR Keast, AM Booth, WC De Groat - Cell and tissue research, 1989 - Springer
In male rats a large number of the postganglionic neurons which innervate the pelvic organs
are located in the major pelvic ganglion. In the present study we have identified the location …

Segmental distribution and peptide content of primary afferent neurons innervating the urogenital organs and colon of male rats

JR Keast, WC De Groat - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1992 - Wiley Online Library

Projections of pelvic autonomic neurons within the lower bowel of the male rat: an anterograde labelling study

GB Luckensmeyer, JR Keast - Neuroscience, 1998 - Elsevier
The tissues of the large intestine which receive an innervation by neurons of the major pelvic

Organization of the motoneurons innervating the pelvic muscles of the male rat

HD Schrøder - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1980 - Wiley Online Library
The cytoarchitecture of the motoneuron pool of the male rat was studied at the lumbo‐sacral
