The present article reviews the literature relative to VIP-and PHI-containing nerve fibers in the pineal gland of mammals. The article summarizes data on the presence and distribution of the two peptides in the brain of mammals, their role in neuronal metabolism, and the significance and origin of V
There is evidence that the trigeminal (Gasserian) ganglia innervate the mammalian pineal gland and serve in its regulation in addition to the sympathetic and cholinergic as well as further influences. By means of immunohistochemical methods, previous studies demonstrated fibers containing calcitonin
It is known that both excitatory cholinergic neural activity and nitric oxide (NO) release from inhibitory non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic (iNANC) nerves are important determinants of adult human airway smooth muscle tone. However, the level of cholinergic and iNANC activity in the newborn is unknow
