  • Title: Buccalin is present in the cholinergic motor neuron B16 of Aplysia and it depresses accessory radula closer muscle contractions evoked by stimulation of B16.

    Journal: Brain Res; 1990 Mar 26; 512(1):175-9. PubMed ID: 2337805.
    Abstract:
    The accessory radula closer (ARC) buccal muscle motor neuron B16 is buccalin-immunoreactive and it synthesizes a peptide with chromatographic properties identical to those of buccalin. Terminal varicosities in the ARC muscle are buccalin-immunoreactive, and buccalin reduces muscle contractions evoked by stimulation of neuron B16, probably by a presynaptic action.
