Abstract
The sympathetic nervous system inhibits gut motility, secretion, and blood flow in the gut microvasculature and can modulate gastrointestinal inflammation. Sympathetic neurons signal via catecholamines, neuropeptides, and gas mediators. In the current review, we summarize the current understanding of the mature sympathetic innervation of the gastrointestinal tract with a focus mainly on the prevertebral sympathetic ganglia as the main output to the gut. We also highlight recent work regarding the developmental processes of sympathetic innervation. The anatomy, neurochemistry, and connections of the sympathetic prevertebral ganglia with different parts of the gut are considered in adult organisms during prenatal and postnatal development and aging. The processes and mechanisms that control the development of sympathetic neurons, including their migratory pathways, neuronal differentiation, and aging, are reviewed.

Abstract
To gain a better understanding of the neuroplasticity of sympathetic neurons during postnatal ontogenesis, the distribution of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) immunoreactivity was studied in sympathetic preganglionic neurons (SPN) in the spinal cord (Th2 segment) of female Wistar rats at different ages (newborn, 10-, 20-, 30-day-old; 2-, 6-month-old; 3-year-old). In all age groups, the majority of nNOS-immunoreactive (IR) neurons was observed in the nucleus intermediolateralis thoracolumbalis pars principalis. In the first month, the proportion of nNOS-IR neurons decreased significantly from 92 ± 3.4% in newborn to 55 ± 4.6% in 1-month-old, while the number of choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)-IR neurons increased from 74 ± 4.2% to 99 ± 0.3% respectively. Decreasing nNOS expression in the first 10 days of life was also confirmed by western blot analysis. Some nNOS-IR SPN also colocalized calbindin (CB) and cocaine and amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART). The percentage of NOS(+)/CB(-) SPN increased from 23 ± 3.6% in 10-day-old to 36 ± 4.2% in 2-month-old rats. Meanwhile, the proportion of NOS(+)/CART(-) neurons decreased from 82 ± 4.7% in newborn to 53 ± 6.1% in 1-month-old rats. The information provided here will also serve as a basis for future studies investigating the mechanisms of autonomic neuron development.

Abstract
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a neurotransmitter that is released from the superior cervical ganglion (SCG) and causes head and neck pain. The morphological properties of human SCG neurons, including neurotransmitter content, are altered during aging. However, morphological changes in CGRP in the SCG during aging are not known. Therefore, we investigated CGRP and other markers in the SCG during aging in an aging model of senescence-accelerated prone mouse (SAMP8) and senescence-accelerated resistant mice (SAMR1) using real-time RT-PCR mRNA analyses and in situ hybridization. The abundance of neurotransmitter (CGRP, NPY, TRPV1), vascular genesis marker (CD31, LYVE-1), and cytochrome C mRNA differed between 12-week-old and 24-week-old SAMP8 and SAMR1. Abundance of TRPV1, CD31 and cytochrome C mRNAs of SAMP8 decreased between 12- and 24-week-old. The ratio of CGRP mRNA positive cells and CGRP mRNA abundance levels of the SCG of aging mouse such as SAMP8 have already been also higher than that of SAMR1 at 12-week-old. The CGRP positive shrunken ganglion cells was increased from 12- to 24-weeks-old mouse in SAMR1 and SAMP8. The SCG primarily affected the internal and external carotid arteries, larynx thyroid gland, and pharyngeal muscle during aging.

Abstract
Calbindin D28 K (CB) and calretinin (CR) are the members of the EF-hand family of calcium-binding proteins that are expressed in neurons and nerve fibers of the enteric nervous system. CB and CR are expressed differentially in neuronal subpopulations throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems and their expression has been used to selectively target specific cell types and isolate neuronal networks. The present study presents an immunohistochemical analysis of CB and CR in the enteric ganglia of small intestine in rats of different ages (newborn, 10-day-old, 20-day-old, 30-day-old, 60-day-old, 1-year-old, and 2-year-old). The data obtained suggest a number of age-dependent changes in CB and CR expression in the myenteric and submucous plexuses. In the myenteric plexus, the lowest percentage of CB-immunoreactive (IR) and CR-IR neurons was observed at birth, after which the number of IR cells increased in the first 10 days of life. In the submucous plexus, CB-IR and CR-IR neurons were observed from 10-day-old onwards. The percentage of CR-IR and CB-IR neurons increased in the first 2 months and in the first 20 days, respectively. In all animals, the majority of the IR neurons colocalized CR and CB. From the moment of birth, the mean of the cross-sectional area of the CB-IR and CR-IR neuronal profiles was larger than that of CB- and CR-negative cells.

Abstract
Expression of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in the sympathetic ganglia was investigated by immunohistochemistry in the superior cervical ganglion (SCG), stellate ganglion (SG) and celiac ganglion (CG) from cats of different ages (newborn, 10-day-old, 20-day-old, 30-day-old and 2-month-old). Non-catecholaminergic TH-negative VIP-immunoreactive (IR) and nNOS-IR sympathetic ganglionic neurons are present from the moment of birth. In all studied age groups, substantial populations of VIP-IR (up to 9.8%) and nNOS-IR cells (up to 8.3%) was found in the SG, with a much smaller population found in the SCG (<1%) and only few cells observed in the CG. The percentage of nNOS-IR and VIP-IR neurons in the CG and SCG did not significantly change during development. The proportion of nNOS-IR and VIP-IR neuron profiles in the SG increased in first 20 days of life from 2.3±0.15% to 8.3±0.56% and from 0.3±0.05% to 9.2±0.83%, respectively. In the SG, percentages of nNOS-IR sympathetic neurons colocalizing VIP increased in the first 20 days of life. ChAT-IR and CGRP-IR neurons were not observed in the sympathetic ganglia of newborn animals and did not appear until 10 days after birth. In the SG of newborn and 10-day-old kittens, the majority of NOS-IR neurons were calbindin (CB)-IR, whereas in the SCG and CG of cats of all age groups and in the SG of 30-day-old and older kittens, the vast majority of NOS-IR neurons lacked CB. We conclude that the development of various non-catecholaminergic neurons in different sympathetic ganglia has its own time dynamics and is concluded at the end of the second month of life.

Abstract
The present study represents a detailed spatiotemporal analysis of the localization of calbindin-D28k (CB) and calretinin (CR) immunoreactive structures in the brain of Xenopus laevis throughout development, conducted with the aim to correlate the onset of the immunoreactivity with the development of compartmentalization of distinct subdivisions recently identified in the brain of adult amphibians and primarily highlighted when analyzed within a segmental paradigm. CR and CB are expressed early in the brain and showed a progressively increasing expression throughout development, although transient expression in some neuronal subpopulations was also noted. Common and distinct characteristics in Xenopus, as compared with reported features during development in the brain of mammals, were observed. The development of specific regions in the forebrain such as the olfactory bulbs, the components of the basal ganglia and the amygdaloid complex, the alar and basal hypothalamic regions, and the distinct diencephalic neuromeres could be analyzed on the basis of the distinct expression of CB and CR in subregions. Similarly, the compartments of the mesencephalon and the main rhombencephalic regions, including the cerebellum, were differently highlighted by their specific content in CB and CR throughout development. Our results show the usefulness of the analysis of the distribution of these proteins as a tool in neuroanatomy to interpret developmental aspects of many brain regions.

Abstract
Expression of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the sympathetic ganglia was investigated by immunohistochemistry and tract tracing. The distribution of NPY immunoreactivity (IR) was studied in the superior cervical ganglion (SCG), stellate ganglion (SG) and celiac ganglion (CG) from rats of different ages (newborn, 10-day-old, 20-day-old, 30-day-old, 2-month-old, 6-month-old, 24-month-old). We observed that the percentage of NPY-IR neuronal profiles increased during early postnatal development. In the SCG and SG, the percentage of NPY-IR profiles enlarged in the first month of life from 43±3.6% (SCG) and 46±3.8% (SG) until 64±4.1% (SCG) and 58±3.5% (SG). The percentage of NPY-IR profiles in the CG increased during the period between 20days (65±3.8%) and 30days (82±5.1%) of animals' life and did not change in further development. In newborn and 10-day-old rats, a large portion of NPY-IR neurons was also calbindin D28K (CB)-IR in all sympathetic ganglia. The proportion of CB-IR substantially decreased during next 10days in the SCG, SG and CG. NPY-IR was approximately present in a half of the postganglionic neurons innervating muscle vessels of the neck and forearm, and the percentage of labeled NPY-IR profiles did not change during the development. Only single Ki67-IR neurons were also NPY-IR in the SCG, SG and CG in newborns and not in older animals. No NPY+/caspase 3+IR neurons were observed. Finally, the process of morphological changes in the size and percentages of NPY-IR profiles is complete in rats by the first month of life.
