Abstrakt: Rabbit large intestine has a segment-specific morphology and motility. However, the morphological features of the myenteric plexus, which controls intestinal motility, have not been characterized in each large intestinal segment. We investigated the myenteric plexus morphology in the rabbit large intestine using protein gene product 9.5 immunohistochemistry in whole-mount preparations. The tenial part of the first and second segments of the proximal colon had the most well developed myenteric plexus, while the caecum had the least. These findings suggest different neuronal control over the motility of each intestinal segment, thereby providing a fundamental understanding of the rabbit enteric nervous system.
