摘要
Immunohistochemical colocalization of GTP cyclohydrolase I (GCH) in the mouse nigrostriatal system with tyrosine hydroxylase or aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase in the somata and terminals of GCH-positive catecholaminergic neurons are proved for the first time by a double-labeling immunofluorescence method with a confocal laser-scanning microscope. GCH-immunoreactive somata in the mouse substantia nigra have synaptic contacts with monoaminergic and non-monoaminergic terminals. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
