Abstract
ⶠCholecystokinin (CCK) activates the myenteric neurons in rats. ⶠWe determined the ontogeny of this activation. ⶠCCK activated myenteric neurons of 21- and 35-day old rats but not 4 and 14. ⶠCCK activated the dorsal vagal complex of all age groups. ⶠThis delayed activation reflects a delayed role for these neurons.
