Moreover, in the midbrain of the rat those authors described NKA in the substantia nigra, the interpeduncular nucleus and the periaqueductal gray [ 29 ] , just as we found NK-ir structures in these nuclei of the human brainstem when using immunocytochemical techniques.
Our data are in agreement with previous results described in the rat brainstem, using radioimmunoassay techniques [ 29 30 ] . Thus, these latter authors found higher levels of NKA and lower levels of NKB in both the midbrain and the medulla oblongata of the rat [ 30 ] . In both regions of the human brainstem, we observed a high density of NK-ir structures.
The data are consistent with the report that a variant of PC12 cells also express exclusively PLD2 [ 18 ] and this expression is stimulated by nerve growth factor [ 18 ] , a treatment known to upregulate the cholinergic phenotype of PC12 cells [ 21 22 ] . PLD2 mRNA is abundant in many regions of the adult rodent central nervous system [ 6 23 ] , including cerebellum, frontal cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus, midbrain, brainstem, striatum, and spinal cord [ 24 ] . The latter three regions are enriched with cell bodies of cholinergic neurons.
Once identified, we anticipate that the study of the function of these genes will contribute to our understanding of midbrain motor neuron development.
This is probably because ANOVA retains information about the experimental design; for the example of synuclein given in the results, it 'knows' that there is a large disagreement between two matched replicates in the midbrain samples, whereas the template match based on the correlation coefficient considers all variations to be essentially equivalent.
