Abstract
AbstractThe phospholipid and cholesterol contents of isolated nerve trunk vesicles were analyzed in a preparation obtained from bovine splenic nerves, made up to about 40 % of noradrenaline storage particles. The cholesterol/phosholipid ratio and the relative phospholipid composition of this preparation were about the same as in adrenal medullary vesicle preparations. How ever, lysolecithin, which is a characteristic constituent of the chrornaffin cell vesicles, was found only in trace amounts in the nerve vesicle preparation. The results support earlier findings of biochemical similarities between the water insoluble phase of the two types of amine storage vesicles.
