  • Title: Immunoreactive methionine-enkephalin in the caudal neurosecretory system of the carp, Cyprinus carpio.
    Author: Yamada C, Mikami S, Kuraishi Y, Kobayashi H.
    Journal: Cell Tissue Res; 1988 Aug; 253(2):485-7. PubMed ID: 3409298.
    Abstract:
    Methionine-enkephalin (Met-enk) was detected by immunocytochemistry and radioimmunoassay in the caudal neuro-secretory system of the carp Cyprinus carpio. Some cells showing urotensin I (UI)-immunoreactivity reacted to Met-enk antiserum, but others did not. Neurons with urotensin II (UII)-immunoreactivity did not react to Met-enk antiserum; neurons with both UI and UII immunoreactivities also displayed a negative Met-enk reaction. Met-enk was detected by radioimmunoassay in the urophysis, although the content was relatively small compared with that found in other parts of the central nervous system and in the pituitary.
