Abstract
A pre-embedding immunostaining procedure was developed using ferritin and peroxidase to enable simultaneous electron microscopic localization of two antigens in the same tissue section. This method was used to study the anatomic relationship between glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) immunoreactive axons and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) - containing neurons of the rat arcuate nucleus. The findings provide ultrastructural evidence that GAD-immunoreactive terminals establish symmetric (Gray II) synapses on TH-reactive neurons.Entities:
