Some blood vessels in the rat median eminence are surrounded by a dense plexus of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide/peptide histidine isoleucine (VIP/PHI) immunoreactive nerves
Using immunohistochemistry at the light and electron microscopic level some blood vessels along the median eminence were shown to be surrounded by dense networks of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide/peptide histidine isoleucine (VIP/PHI)-positive fibers. VIP and PHI released from these fibers may contribute to the elevated levels of these two peptides measured in portal blood as compared to peripheral blood by radioimmunoassay. VIP and PHI may also be important in the control of blood flow through the median eminence.
