Histochemical and cytochemical observations on the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) localization in the superior cervical ganglion (SCG) after preganglionic sympathectomy of the neonatal rat.
Results of histochemical and cytochemical reactions show that after the section of preganglionic nerve trunk performed in newborn animals, the appearance and the individual increase in AChE activity in non-innervated nerve cells follow the pattern of normally innervated ganglion cell.
