Immunocytochemical studies of actin localization in the central nervous system.
The contractile protein, actin, is a major component of the central nervous system (CNS). Its accumulation at presynaptic and postsynaptic sites has been suggested by biochemical and ultrastructural studies. The present work examines directly the distribution of actin within the CNS by immunocytochemical means. Sections of rat CNS were stained with an antiserum against chicken gizzard actin, us...
متن کاملADENOSINE IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Besides being a metabolite of nucleotides like ATP, adenosine is a mediator of neuronal function in the central nervous system. Its actions are mediated by at least three extracellular receptors. In this review different aspects of adenosine such as biosynthesis, release, inactivation and its receptors are discussed. It also covers pre- and postsynaptic effects as well as postreceptor mecha...
متن کاملPoor reliability of immunocytochemical localization of IgG in immersion-fixed tissue from the central nervous system.
The effect of fixation technique and post mortem-to-fixation interval in immersion-fixed tissue from the central nervous system on immunocytochemical staining for the presence of an immunoglobulin was determined in mice. Immersion-fixed tissue was found to be inferior to perfusion-fixed tissue for immunocytochemical staining of this serum protein. Unlike what has been observed for other antigen...
متن کاملCarboxypeptidase E (CPE): immunocytochemical localization in the rat central nervous system and pituitary gland.
Carboxypeptidase E (CPE, enkephalin convertase, carboxypeptidase H; EC 3.4.17.10) is a carboxypeptidase B-like enzyme proposed to be involved in the synthesis of a variety of peptide hormones and neurotransmitters. In the present study we have localized CPE in the rat central nervous system using specific polyclonal antisera to the purified enzyme. Immunoreactive CPE occurs in a variety of cell...
متن کاملImmunocytochemical localization of coated vesicle protein in rodent nervous system
Immunocytochemistry has been used to study the distribution of the major 180,000-mol wt protein of coated vesicles in rodent cerebellum. An antibody to the coat protein was prepared in rabbits and characterized by immunodiffusion and immunofixation of polyacrylamide gels. At the light microscope level the protein was primarily localized in punctate profiles surrounding Purkinje cells and within...
