摘要: Immunohistochemical studies on rat brain revealed large numbers of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-positive nerve cell bodies all over the limbic cortex and neocortex. Large terminal plexus' were found within layers cortex, but mainly II-IV Thus, association neurons probably exist in cerebral which store VIP or VIP-like peptides, making possible a role for such peptides higher nervous processes. A neuroendocrine function may also be postulated view presence VIP-positive terminals central amygdaloid nucleus, suprachiasmatic medial preoptic nucleus anterior hypothalamic nucleus.
