Abstract:
:Pimozide, a specific blocker of dopaminergic receptors, was injected for 4 or 9 days in freshwater (FW) eels or eels acclimated to sea water (SW) for 10 or 30 days. The daily dose was 100 or 200 microgram/100 g. Melanophore index values increase in FW and in 1 month-SW injected eels. All the treated fish react by a total or subtotal degranulation of the lead-hematoxylin positive cells in the pars intermedia. These cells were previously identified as alpha-MSH-secreting cells. The MSH cell nuclear area is significantly increased, nucleoli are larger and the endoplasmic reticulum more developed. The intensity of the response is similar in FW and SW eels, but it does not increase with the higher dose. The rapid release of pituitary alpha-MSH is also visualized by immunofluorescence and immunoenzymologic techniques. No effect on the second cell type of the pars intermedia (PAS-positive cell) is detected. The amount of neurosecretory material is often reduced in the neurohypophysis. These results suggest that the hypothalamic inhibitory control of MSH release and synthesis is mediated through dopaminergic fibers in the eel, but other factors cannot be ignored in this regulation.
