Abstract
The cholinergic innervation of pancreatic islets was investigated in the human using operatory samples. In order to analyze the nature of stained cholinergic nerve fibers some specimens were incubated in a solution containing 6-hydroxydopamine (6-HDA) to obtain a selective degeneration of adrenergic nerves. Cholinergic nerve fibers are present in human pancreatic islets, and appear to be organized in an external peri-insular plexus. Some nerve fibers from the peri-insular plexus enter the islets and seem to innervate directly various types of endocrine insular elements. The 6-HDA treatment does not alter the distribution pattern of cholinergic nerve fibers within pancreatic islets.
