| Abstract | The co-localization of glutaminase and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) was examined with immunohistochemistry in the rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG). The majority of the DRG neurons were immunoreactive for glutaminase and all DRG neurons that contained CGRP also contained glutaminase. These results indicate that some DRG neurons release glutamate and CGRP from the same axon terminals in the spinal cord. Co-release of glutamate and CGRP from primary afferents may have multiple effects including fast and slow neurotransmission of sensory information in the spinal cord. |
