Degeneration of adrenergic axons in the longitudinal muscle coat of the rat duodenum following treatment with 6-hydroxydopamine.
Following systemic treatment with 6-OHDA, electron microscopy of adult rat duodenum showed degenerating adrenergic axons in the longitudinal muscle coat making neuromuscular relationships with gaps of varied widths.
