The peptidergic innervation of the guinea pig uterine artery in pregnancy.
The influence of pregnancy on the density and pattern of the peptidergic innervation of the guinea pig uterine artery was studied. Whole mount stretch preparations of the uterine artery from estrus and late pregnant guinea pigs were processed for the immunohistochemical demonstration of neuropeptide Y (NPY)-, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)- and substance P (SP)- immunoreactive nerve fibres. In late pregnancy the density of NPY- and CGRP- containing nerve fibres was remarkably decreased, while that of VIP- and SP- immunoreactive nerves showed a moderate reduction. The meaning and the possible physiological relevance of the decreased density of peptide-immunoreactive nerves in the uterine artery in late pregnancy are discussed.
