Abstract:
:The distribution and chemical properties of compounds with tachykinin-like immunoreactivity (TK-LI) in the spinal cord and brain of lampreys (Lampetra fluviatilis and Ichthyomyzon unicuspis) were investigated by means of immunohistochemistry and various chromatographic methods combined with radioimmunoassay. The distribution of TK immunoreactive fibers in the lamprey spinal cord was investigated with 13 different TK antisera which gave positive staining in pilot experiments. The antisera were raised against substance P (SP) (n = 6), physalaemin (PHY) (n = 1), neurokinin A (NKA) (n = 2), kassinin (KAS) (n = 2) or eledoisin (ELE) (n = 2). Pre-incubation of these antisera with their corresponding TKs abolished or reduced the immunostaining. Four different patterns of distribution were found with the 13 antisera, and they did not seem to be related to the TKs against which the antisera were raised. The different patterns could be explained by assuming the presence of the three different TKs. Six different antisera, raised against SP (n = 2), KAS (n = 2) or ELE (n = 2), were used for radioimmunoassay. The TK-LI material eluted as several separate components in various chromatographic systems. The central nervous system (CNS) of the lamprey did not contain measurable amounts of SP, NKA, neurokinin B (NKB), KAS or ELE. The present data imply that the lamprey CNS contains at least three different TKs probably different from SP, PHY, NKA, NKB, KAS or ELE; these are possibly new, not earlier described TKs. The three hypothetical TKs differ in their distribution.
