5-HT3 and P2X2 receptors are coexpressed in neurons of the myenteric plexus. Immunohistochemical detection of 5-HT3A, 5-HT3B, and P2X2 subunits in the rat intestinal tract at 4 d postnatal. A, 5-HT3A (rabbit anti-5-HT3A antibody; green) and P2X2 (guinea pig anti-P2X2 antibody; red). B, 5-HT3B (goat anti 5-HT3B antibody; green) and P2X2 (rabbit anti-P2X2 antibody; red). Both 5-HT3 subunits colocalize with P2X2R in the same neurons (arrows). mp, Myenteric plexus; lm, longitudinal muscle; cm, circular muscle. Scale bar, 50 μm.
