Title: Somatostatin-28 (1-12)-like immunoreactivity in the cat diencephalon. Author: De León M, Coveñas R, Narváez JA, Tramu G, Aguirre JA, González-Barón S. Journal: Neuropeptides; 1991 Jun; 19(2):107-17. PubMed ID: 1719443. Abstract: Using an indirect immunoperoxidase technique, the location of somatostatin-28 (1-12)-like immunoreactive fibres and cell bodies in the cat diencephalon was studied. The hypothalamus was richer in somatostatin-28 (1-12)-like immunoreactive structures than the thalamus. A high density of immunoreactive fibres was observed in the nuclei habenularis lateralis, paraventricularis anterior (its caudal part), filiformis, hypothalami ventromedialis, and regio praeoptica, whereas a moderate density was found in the nuclei paracentralis, supraopticus, supra chiasmaticus, hypothalamus posterior and area hypothalamica dorsalis. The nuclei lateralis dorsalis, lateralis posterior, medialis dorsalis, rhomboidens, centralis medialis, ventralis medialis, reuniens, anterior dorsalis, parataenialis, interanteromedialis, hypothalamus lateralis, hypothalamus dorsomedialis and arcuatus had the lowest density of immunoreactive fibres. In addition, a high or moderate density of somatostatin-28 (1-12)-like immunoreactive cell bodies was observed in the nuclei paraventricularis hypothalami, supraopticus, supra chiasmaticus, area hypothalamics dorsalis, subparafascicularis, hypothalamus posterior and hypothalamus anterior, whereas scarce immunoreactive perikarya were visualized in the nuclei lateralis dorsalis and parafascicularis. The distribution of somatostatin-28 (1-12)-like immunoreactive structures is compared with the location of other neuropeptides in the cat diencephalon.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
