Abstract
The present study investigated the development of the paracervical ganglion in 5-, 7- and 10-week-old porcine foetuses using double labelling immunofluorescence method. In 5-week-old foetuses single PGP-positive perikarya were visible only along the mesonephric ducts. They contained DβH or VAChT, and nerve fibres usually were PGP/VAChT-positive. The perikarya were mainly oval. In 7-week-old foetuses, a compact group of PGP-positive neurons (3144±213) was visible on both sides and externally to the uterovaginal canal mesenchyme of paramesonephric ducts. Nerve cell bodies contained only DβH (36.40±1.63%) or VAChT (17.31±1.13%). In the 10-week-old foetuses, the compact group of PGP-positive neurons divided into several large and many small clusters of nerve cells and also became more expanded along the whole uterovaginal canal mesenchyme reaching the initial part of the uterine canal of the paramesonephric duct. The number of neurons located in these neuronal structures inc reased to 4121±259. Immunohistochemistry revealed that PGP-positive nerve cell bodies contained DβH (40.26±0,73%) and VAChT (30.73±1.34%) and were also immunoreactive for NPY (33.24±1,27%), SOM (23.6±0,44%) or VIP (22.9±1,13%). Other substances studied (GAL, NOS, CGRP, SP) were not determined at this stage of the development. In this study, for the first time, the morphology of PCG formation in the porcine foetus has been described in three stages of development. Dynamic changes in the number of neurons and their sizes were also noted, as well as the changes in immunochistochemical coding of maturing neurons.
