## Abstract Little information is available concerning the pelvic visceral afferent system, in view of its terminal location in the spinal cord and its associated transmitter substances in the rat. By utilizing an immunostaining method to examine the transneuronal neurotransmitter depletion resulti
This study investigated second messengers formed in response to calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in primary cultures of neonatal rat spinal cord. CGRP increased the level of cAMP above basal levels (50 pmol/mg protein) over a large range of concentrations. The concentration-response curve had
