## Abstract The morphology and function of the carotid sinus and carotid body have been extensively studied, but our knowledge of their transmitter(s) is still incomplete. Nitric oxide (NO) recently has been identified as a novel messenger molecule in a number of neuronal and nonβneuronal tissues.
The distribution of nitrergic neurons was investigated by using nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) histochemistry and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) immunohistochemistry in wholemount preparations of the urinary bladder in guinea pigs. Both NADPH-d Ο© and NOS Ο© neurons were
