Serotonergic and peptidergic inputs to the primate ventral spinal cord as visualized with multiple chromagens on the same tissue section.
Primate spinal cord tissue sections were sequentially incubated in serotonin (5-HT), substance P (SP) and methionine-enkephalin antisera and reacted immunocytochemically. The findings indicate that virtually all SP-like immunoreactivity coexists with 5-HT in the ventral horn, while an additional group of 5-HT terminals do not contain SP immunoreactivity.
