TI  - Immunohistochemical and enzyme histochemical characteristics of short axon cells 
      in the olfactory bulb of the golden hamster.
PG  - 903-8
AB  - Short axon (SA) cells in the olfactory bulb are subdivided into six types after 
      Golgi impregnation, although their functional significance is not fully 
      elucidated. In the present study, we examined the golden hamster olfactory bulb 
      by immunohistochemistry to localize neurotransmitters, neuron-specific marker, 
      and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in the SA cells. Enzyme histochemical staining 
      was also performed to detect the activity of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide 
      phosphate (NADPH)-diaphorase, which is identified with NOS. In the main olfactory 
      bulb (MOB), neuropeptide Y (NPY)-, NOS-, and NADPH-diaphorase-positive SA cells 
      were detected in the glomerular layer (GL), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide 
      (VIP)-positive SA cells in the external plexiform layer (EPL), and NPY-, 
      somatostatin (SOM)-, protein gene product 9.5 (PGP 9.5)-, NOS-, and 
      NADPH-diaphorase-positive SA cells in the granule cell layer (GCL). In the 
      accessory olfactory bulb (AOB), VIP- and PGP 9.5-positive SA cells were detected 
      in the mitral/tufted cell layer (MTL), and NPY-, SOM-, NOS-, and 
      NADPH-diaphorase-positive SA cells in the GCL. The common presence of NPY- SOM-, 
      VIP-, PGP 9.5-, NOS-, and NADPH-diaphorase-positive SA cells in both the MOB and 
      the AOB may suggest that respective types of cells with the same immunoreactivity 
      play the same role no matter where these cells are located in the MOB or the AOB.
