title: [The presence of purinergic, quinacrine-positive neurons in the rabbit stomach].
abstract: Inhibitory non-adrenergic non-cholinergic efferent nerves are activated in the stomach of the rabbit by electrical vagal stimulation (1). Aim of the present research is to ascertain, in the rabbit stomach, by means of quinacrine fluorescence technique (6) the presence of quinacrine-positive cells and nerve fibers which are thought to be non-adrenergic non-cholinergic inhibitory nerves of gastric motility. A population of neurons showing a high affinity for quinacrine was revealed by fluorescence microscopy in the myenteric plexus of the rabbit stomach.
