Abstract
By immunocytochemistry serotonin was localized in the chief cells of the carotid body in human infants. Radioenzymatic measurement of the serotonin concentration revealed that it represents a significant proportion of the total amine content of the carotid body.This publication has 30 references indexed in Scilit:
