Immunocytochemical and ultrastructural differentiation between Met-enkephalin-, Leu-enkephalin-, and Met/Leu-enkephalin-immunoreactive neurons of feline gut.
Selective immunocytochemical procedures, applied at the light and electron microscopical level, have resulted in the identification of three types of enkephalin-immunoreactive nerves in the feline gastrointestinal tract, including neurons containing either Met- or Leu-enkephalin immunoreactivity or those simultaneously storing both Met- and Leu-enkephalin immunoreactants. The three different ty...
متن کاملMethionine-enkephalin and leucine-enkephalin in human sympathoadrenal system and pheochromocytoma.
To elucidate the physiological and pathophysiological significance of methionine- and leucine-enkephalin (Met-and Leu-enkephalin, respectively) in human sympathoadrenal system, the contents of these peptides in normal human sympathetic nervous system, adrenal medulla, and pheochromocytomas were determined by specific radioimmunoassays combined with reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromato...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical studies on the gastrointestinal tract using antisera to Met-enkephalin and Met-enkephalin Arg6Phe7.
Antisera specific for the C-terminus of Met-enkephalin and two of its variants isolated from adrenal medulla and brain, namely Met-enk Arg6 and Met-enk Arg6Phe7, have been used in immunohistochemical studies of the gastrointestinal tract in rat, mouse and guinea pig. Met-enk and Met-enk Arg6Phe7-like immunoreactivities were found with similar distribution in nerve cell bodies of the myenteric p...
متن کاملProbable precursors of [Leu]enkephalin and [Met]enkephalin in adrenal medulla: peptides of 3-5 kilodaltons.
Adrenal chromaffin granules contain at least 10 peptides, ranging in size from 3 to 5 kilodaltons, that yield, upon digestion with trypsin, peptides that show specific binding to opiate receptors. All are distinctly different from beta-endorphin. Two of these peptides have been purified to homogeneity and subjected to chemical analysis. One is apparently a [Met]enkephalin precursor containing t...
متن کاملIn vitro release of [5-methionine]enkephalin and [5-leucine]-enkephalin from the rat globus pallidus.
Endogenous [5-methionine]enkephalin (Metenkephalin) and [5-leucine]enkephalin (Leu-enkephalin) are released from perfused slices of rat globus pallidus by increased K(+) in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Tissue perfused for 40 min contained only 26% of the Met-enkephalin and 44% of the Leu-enkephalin found in the freshly dissected tissue. After perfusion, the mean (+/-SEM) ratio (wt/wt) of Met-enke...
