Abstract:
The oval nucleus of the bed nuclei of the stria terminalis of the rats was found in a previous investigation be studded with the corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) and neurotensin (NT)-immunoreactive(ir) neurons. The present work was to study their distribution and the possible coexistence of these two neuropeptides in the neuron of oval nucleus. The CRF- and NT- ir neurons were demonstrated to be densely and evenly distributed in the nucleus, among which were scattered a substantial number of cells cocontaining CRF and NT.
