title: Simultaneous demonstrations of neuropeptide Y gene expression and peptide storage in single neurons of the human brain.
abstract: A combination of in situ hybridization for neuropeptide Y mRNA that used a 32P-labeled complementary RNA probe and immunocytochemistry with polyclonal antibodies against neuropeptide Y were applied to human cortical brain samples to simultaneously localize neuropeptide Y and its mRNA. These two techniques allowed simultaneous identification of neuropeptide Y gene expression and peptide storage in single neurons of the human brain.
