Immunostaining for protein gene product 9.5 (PGP, general neural marker) revealed that the most numerous PGP-positive nerve fibres were found in the mesenchyme of the uterovaginal canal height. Numerous nerve fibres were distributed in the uterine segment, less in the tubal segment of paramesonephric ducts (PD), and they usually occurred at the edge of the mesenchyme. A low number of fibres was visible in the developing ovary cortex and medulla. Many fibres expressed dopamine \u03b2-hydroxylase (D\u03b2H) and\/or vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) in the studied period. Most D\u03b2H-positive nerve fibres were observed in all segments of PD. VAChT-positive were mainly distributed in the uterovaginal canal of PD. D\u03b2H\/VAChT-positive nerve fibres were observed in the mesenchyme of all segments of the PD, but they were most common in the uterovaginal canal and the uterine segment of PD. In the ovary, nerves were mainly D\u03b2H-positive and single nerve fibres containing VAChT.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.24425\/pjvs.2024.152955","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,20]],"date-time":"2024-12-20T20:19:29Z","timestamp":1734725969000},"page":"645-645","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Innervation of the female internal genital organs in 12-week-old porcine foetuses"],"prefix":"10.24425","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Franke-Radowiecka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Animal Anatomy, University of Warmia and Mazury, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Oczapowskiego 13, 10-719 Olsztyn, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"N.V.","family":"Demus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Normal and Pathological Morphology and Forensic Veterinary Medicine, Stepan Gzhytskyi National University of Veterinary Medicine and Biotechnologies of Lviv, Pekarska 50, Lviv, Ukraine"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.","family":"Bossowska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Physiology and Pathophysiology, School of Medicine, University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, Warszawska 30, 10-082, Olsztyn, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"37468","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref0","unstructured":"Czaja K, Kaleczyc J, Pidsudko Z, Franke-Radowiecka A, \u0141akomy M (2001) Distribution of efferent neurons innervating the oviduct in the pig.
