Granule containing cells in the crayfish third abdominal ganglion

Abstract

1. 1. Four of the 850 neuron cell bodies of the crayfish third abdominal ganglion contain large dense secretory granules. 2. 2. The processes of these cells form a neurohemal organ in the dorsal perineurium/neurilemma in the ganglion 3. 3. None of the immunocytochemically identified peptides accounts for the observed distribution of granules.
