Cryostat‐and vibratome‐cut sections of rat kidneys were singly or doubly labeled to visualize immunoreactive tyrosine hydroxylase (THI), dopamine beta‐hydroxylase (DBHI), vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIPI), and neuropeptide Y (NPYI). Rats were perfusion fixed with 2‐4% paraformaldehyde with or without 0.15% picric acid and rinsed in buffer for 18‐48 hr. Single antigens were labeled with horseradish per‐oxidase in vibratome sections, whereas cryostat sections were used to label one antigen with perox‐idase and another with a fluorophore in the same tissue section. A dense plexus of DBHI noradren‐ergic nerves innervates the renal arterial tree, and such nerves innervate the interlobar veins and renal calyx as well. Immunoreactive NPY is colocal‐ized in most of these nerves, but some intrarenal noradrenergic nerves do not contain NPY but do contain VIP immunoreactivity. The distribution of NPYI nerves resembles that of DBHI nerves, whereas most perivascular noradrenergic nerves immunoreactive for VIP innervate selected arcuate and interlobular arteries. A small population of nonadrenergic, VIPI nerves innervates the renal calyx.
