The purpose of the present study was to investigate the morphological and quantitative
alterations of the myenteric plexus neurons of the stomach of rats with streptozotocin-
induced chronic diabetes and compare them to those of non-diabetic animals. Samples from
the body of the stomach were used for whole-mount preparations stained with NADH-
diaphorase and for histological sections stained with hematoxylin-eosin. It was observed
that diabetes cause a significant decrease on the number of neurons.

Samples from the body of the stomach were used for whole-mount preparations stained with NADH-diaphorase and for histological sections stained with hematoxylin-eosin. It was observed that diabetes cause a significant decrease on the number of neurons.
