Abstract:
Objective\ The adrenal gland is a linkage between nervous system and endocrine system.Its cortex results from mesoderm,and medulla derives from neuroectoderm.Searching its double characteristic of nervous and endocrine tissue is our aim. Methods\ Histochemical and immunohistochemical staining techniques were used,and immunostained sections were observed under a light microscopy. Results\ NPY positive neuron and nerve fiber,CGRP positive nerve fiber existed in adrenal cortex.NADPH d positive neuron and nerve fiber, c fos positive neuron and nerve fiber,CGRP positive nerve fiber,SP positive nerve fiber were detected in adrenal medulla.NADPH d positive cell,NPY positive cell,CGRP positive cell,SP positive cell were found among the adrenal chromaffin cells.The zona glomerulosa,zone fasciculata and zona reticularis were stained strongly by NADPH d in cortex. Conclusion\ The adrenal gland was innervated by NO ergic,NPY ergic,CGRP ergic,SP ergic, c fos ergic nerves.The adrenal parenchyma,especially chromaffin cells can produce NO,NPY,CGRP,SP which regulate adrenal endocrine by itself.The nervous control of adrenal function and neuroendocrine function of adrenal gland is more complex than hitherto believed.\;
