Fig. 3. ${alpha}$ 7-nAChRs are also present in myenteric plexus, but their distribution is not as ubiquitous as in the submucous plexus. (A,C) Red (Alexa 594-conjugated mAb 210, 7 nmol l^–1) and green (17 nmol l^–1 mAb 306/FITC-conjugated goat-anti-mouse 1:1000) channels of a confocal micrograph taken from a myenteric ganglion double-stained for ${alpha}$ 3/ ${alpha}$ 5- and ${alpha}$ 7-containing nAChRs. (B) Combined immunofluorescence from A and C. In A–C, the arrow points to a cell that expresses ${alpha}$ 3/ ${alpha}$ 5- but not ${alpha}$ 7-nAChRs. The upward arrow head points to a cell that expresses ${alpha}$ 7- but not ${alpha}$ 3/ ${alpha}$ 5-nAChRs. The downward arrow head points to a cell that expresses both types of nAChRs. Scale bar, 50 µm.
