Marked Effects of Tachykinin in Myositis Both in the Experimental Side and Contralaterally: Studies on NK-1 Receptor Expressions in an Animal Model

Figure 13

Expression of NK-1R (TACR1) mRNA in blood vessel walls. Serial sections from soleus muscle specimen of the 6 week group, non-exercised side, showing small arteriole (left part, (a), (b)) and vein (right part, (a), (b)). Processing for NK-1R mRNA using anti-sense probe (a) and processing with corresponding sense probe (b). Expression of NK-1R mRNA is seen in the walls of the blood vessels in (a). There are no reactions in the sense control (b). Arrows indicate parts of the walls. Bar = 25 μm.
