Large and small dense cored vesicles are present in various proportions in the noradrenergic nerve terminals of different species. These vesicles differ not only in size but in chemical composition as well. For example, only the large vesicles contain opioid peptide, a significant amount of matrix dopamine β-hydroxylase and measurable concentrations of chromogranin A. However, while much is known about the composition of isolated large and small vesicles their exact role in transmitter release is controversial. It has not been established to what extent large and small vesicles participate in exocytosis. Moreover, physiological and pharmacological experiments have indicated that there is not always a proportional co-release of noradrenaline and dopamine β-hydroxylase. The present study was performed to find morphological evidence for the hypothesis that both large and small vesicles can release transmitter but only the large vesicles release the enzyme.
