Figure 1. SK3 immunostaining in the guinea pig proximal colon
A, confocal photomicrograph of guinea pig proximal colon double immuno-labelled for Kit (green) and SK3 (red) illustrating that staining was sometimes in close apposition. Horizontal bar, 50 μm. B, electron microscope immunohistochemistry demonstrating a SK3 positive interstitial cell (SK3+) in the circular muscle (cm) of the proximal colon in close proximity to an axon bundle (ab) devoid of its Schwann cell sheath. This SK+ cell also displayed processes which are in close apposition with an SK3− ICC and neighbouring smooth muscle cells. Bar, 2 μm. Figure modified from Klemm & Lang (2002).
