    Dynorphin-A-(1-8) is contained within vasopressin neurosecretory vesicles in rat pituitary (1983)

    Description: Dynorphin-A-(1-8), an opioid peptide widely distributed in the rat central nervous system, is present in vasopressin-containing neurosecretory cells terminating in the neural lobe of the pituitary. Electron microscopic immunocytochemistry reveals that dynorphin-A-(1-8) is contained within the same neurosecretory vesicles as vasopressin and vasopressin-associated neurophysin in the neural lobe of the rat. The results indicate that dynorphin may be released in the pituitary concomitantly with vasopressin during the antidiuretic response.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Whitnall, M H -- Gainer, H -- Cox, B M -- Molineaux, C J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Dec 9;222(4628):1137-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6648526" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Notes: Summary Ultrastructural post-embedding immuno-gold techniques were applied to the supraoptic nucleus and the neurohypophysis of mice and rats. The primary antibodies were three different monoclonal antineurophysins, used in protein A-gold and immunoglobulin-gold procedures. Conventional plastic embedding as well as hydrophilic media (L.R. White) were used; non-osmicated and osmicated tissues were immunolabeled; sodium metaperiodate oxidation was used, but was not essential for immunolabeling. Vasopressinergic and oxytocinergic NSGs were identified by the specific immunoreactivity of their respective neurophysins on adjacent thin sections, and by sequential double labeling on the same thin section using two different antibodies associated with gold probes of different diameters. The immunoidentification indicates that vasopressin NSGs can additionally be differentiated as larger, with more electron-dense matrix, and susceptible to damage by sodium metaperiodate. The only organelles consistently labeled were neurosecretory granules (NSGs), either intact or within lysosomal configurations. Some lysosomal dense bodies were immunoreactive even when discrete NSGs were no longer morphologically recognisable within them. Labeled NSGs were located within neuronal cell bodies, along axonal shafts and within axonal swellings and endings; occasionally immunoreactive NSGs were observed within synaptic boutons. Labeling intensity was semi-quantitatively gauged by counting gold particles in relation to numbers of NSGs per axonal varicosity. The precise localisation achieved with particulate immunogold labeling surpasses that previously obtained with diffuse electron-dense immunoreaction products.
