采用NADPH脱氢酶染色法检测大鼠盆腔神经节（MPG）全坐骨和大鼠阴茎切片中一氧化氮合酶（NOS）的存在。在MPG中观察到许多染色的神经元，其分布方式与之前描述的逆行标记的阴茎神经元相同。在阴茎（海绵状）神经的许多轴突和与阴茎各组织相关的静脉曲张终末也观察到染色。结果表明，许多（如果不是全部的话）MPG的阴茎神经元含有一氧化氮，并且阴茎内可能有一氧化氮的神经来源。
NADPH diaphorase staining was used to indicate the presence of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in whole mounts of rat major pelvic ganglion (MPG) and sections of rat penis. Many stained neurons were observed in the MPG and were distributed in a manner identical to that of retrogradely labelled penile neurons described previously. Staining was also observed within many axons of the penile (cavernous) nerve and in varicose terminals associated with various tissues of the penis. The results suggest that many, if not all, penile neurons of the MPG contain NOS and that a neural source of NO within the penis is likely.
