Abstract

The coexistence of glycine- and PV-immunoreactivities was studied immunocytochemically in the nuclei of the superior olive, trapezoid body, cochlea and lateral lemniscus. All of the PV-immunoreactive neurons in the nuclei of the superior olive and trapezoid body were immunoreactive to glycine but not to GABA. In the dorsal cochlear nucleus, PV-positive neurons were sometimes immunoreactive to glycine. In the ventral nucleus of the lateral lemniscus, PV-positive cells were immunoreactive neither to glycine nor to GABA. Consequently, it was concluded that PV-immunoreactivity was distributed not only in the GABAergic neurons, but also in the glycinergic neurons and possibly in wider neuronal populations.
