From: Separate urinary bladder and prostate neurons in the central nervous system of the rat: simultaneous labeling with two immunohistochemically distinguishable pseudorabies viruses

Figure 2

Prostate and bladder neurons in the lumbosacral cord as a function of incubation time Neurons labeled from the prostate (PCh+P) are found mainly in L1-L2 whereas neurons labeled from the bladder (BCh+B) are found mainly in L6-S1. Doubles are located in L1-L2 mainly in the dorsal gray commissure. Superficial dorsal horn neurons are found only in L6-S1. Note that: 1) the numbers of both prostate neurons and bladder neurons increase significantly at longer incubation times and: 2) the total number of bladder neurons is at least a factor of ten greater than the total number of prostate neurons.
