Somatostatin 28(1-14) immunoreactivity in primary afferent neurons of the rat spinal cord.
Somatostatin 28(1-14) immunoreactivity is present in dorsal root ganglion cells and in the superficial laminae of the spinal cord in the rat. The distribution of somatostatin 28(1-14) immunoreactive varicosities in the dorsal horn corresponds well to the distribution of somatostatin 14 immunoreactive elements. Some dorsal root ganglion cells exhibit both somatostatin 14 and somatostatin 28(1-14) immunoreactivities.
