An electron immunocytochemical study of the basilar artery in rabbits after subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH): a preliminary report.
Vascular endothelial cells of the basilar artery and secretory axons of the neurohypophysis from rabbits after experimental subarachnoid haemorrhage were investigated by postembedding peroxidase--anti-peroxidase technique for electron microscopy to detection of vasopressin (VP). The results indicate an lack of VP-positive endothelial cells in basilar artery, while VP-positive secretory granules were commonly present in the neurohypophysis. The results are discussed in terms of pathophysiological aspect of subarachnoid haemorrhage.
