Abstract
Physiological and radioligand binding studies have demonstrated the ex istence of 5-HT3 receptors in the enteric nervous system. In order to determine if the cloned 5-HT3 receptor subunit, 5-HT(3)R-A, was expres sed in the enteric nervous system of rats, we have performed in situ h ybridization with P-33-labeled cRNA antisense probes on sections of ra t small intestine. Hybridization was detected. in both submucosal and myenteric ganglia of the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum.
