Using antibodies to somatostatin in combination with the avidin-biotin immunohistochemical method, the laminar distribution and morphology of somatostatin-like (SOM-L) immunoreactive cells have been studied in the hippocampal formation of the rat. SOM-L positive cells are present throughout the longitudinal axis of the hippocampus. Most of these neurons are of medium (15–20 μm) to large (25–30 μm) size with soma of multipolar or fusiform shape. No pyramidal or granule cells contained SOM-L immunoreactivity. SOM-L-positive cells show a preferential distribution in the stratum oriens and stratum pyramidalae of Ammon's horn, and match the description of the polymorphic cells of the hilus area dentata. This geographic segregation may imply a chemical compartmentation of function in the hippocampus.
