Connexin-32 and Connexin-43 Immunoreactivity in Rodent Taste Buds
… we examine the presence of connexin–32–LIR (Like Immunoreactivity) and connexin–43–LIR in rodent taste buds through immunocytochemical analysis and DAB (Di–amino–benzidine) immunoelectron microscopy. We observed that connexin–32–LIR co–localizes with P2X2–LIR in nerve fibers and in a small subset …

Dopamine-Beta-Hydroxylase and Norepinephrine Transporter Immunoreactivity in Rat Taste Buds
<p>Of the handful of neurotransmitters modulating taste response, norepinephrine (NE) may be the least understood. Although the physiological role of NE has been tested, it is still unclear whether the rat taste bud may serve as an endogenous source of neurotransmitter or if it must be taken up …

Immunoreactivity of anti pZP antibodies from the serum of SpayVac vaccinated mares to equine zona protein
… thoroughly for SpayVac. We investigated the immunoreactivity of anti pZP antibodies from the serum of SpayVac vaccinated mares to equine zona protein using Western blot and immunohistochemical techniques. These techniques were first applied using a bovine model because bovine oocytes are more …

Effects of high hydrostatic pressure on immunoreactivity, digestibility and intestinal permeability of major peanut and milk allergens
… of HHP on major peanut and milk allergens on immunoreactivity, digestibility and intestinal permeability were studied in view to reduce their allergic potential. Major peanut allergens (Ara h1, Ara h2, Ara h3 and Ara h6) were purified using a combination of anion exchange chromatography and …

Neuroanatomical specificity of prolactin-induced hyperphagia and expression of fos-like immunoreactivity following central administration of prolactin
… of cellular activation, as revealed by Fos-like immunoreactivity (Fos-lir), in the PVN, VMH, and MPOA of female rats following treatments of varying lengths of icv administration of PRL. Ad libitum fed virgin female rats were given 1, 7 or 15 icv injections of PRL twice daily at a dose known to …

The Localization of GABA-Like Immunoreactivity in the Optic Lobe Neuropils and Optic Tracts of the Cockroach Leucophaea Maderae
… lobes of the brain, the discovery of GABA-like immunoreactivity in the optic lobes and optic tract could be an important first step in localizing cells that comprise the circadian oscillator(s) that control the temporal pattern of many physiological, biochemical and behavioral activities, such …

The effects of the kappa agonist U-50,488 on morphine-induced place preference conditioning and Fos immunoreactivity in the preweanling and periadolescent rat
… preference (CPP), locomotor activity and Fos immunoreactivity and assessed in 10-, 17- and 35-day old rats. It was predicted that kappa agonist treatment would block the unconditioned and conditioned behaviors produced by morhine (a mu opioid receptor agonist).

Dynamic changes in the localization of synapse associated proteins during development and differentiation of the mammalian retina
… layer and the outer plexiform layer. In general, immunoreactivity for presynaptic terminal associated proteins was first observed in cellular layers, and as differentiation progressed, immunoreactivity was localized to the synaptic or plexiform layers. However, there were distinct differences in …

A Study of Pro- and Anti-Nociceptive Factors In A Model of Colitis-Associated Visceral Pain
… used to investigate changes in immunoreactivity of DRG terminals in the thoracic dorsal horn (segments T9-T13). SP immunoreactivity was increased in the dorsal horn (4 fold; P < 0.001) and central canal (P < 0.001) following chronic colitis. In contrast, SP immunoreactivity was …

Choline Acetyltransferase and Carnitine Acetyltransferase Activity in Human Spermatozoa During Capacitation
… fertilizing potential of sperm.</p> <p>Regional immunoreactivity in human spermatozoa as assessed by fluorescent immunocytochemistry was compared with ChAT and CaAT activity determined by enzymatic methodologies. Increasing proportions of sperm exhibited ChAT immunoreactivity along the equatorial …

Mucin expression in normal and diseased states of the stomach : a histochemical and immunohistochemical study
… results, although the latter showed more MUCJ immunoreactivity. Whereas early foetal stomach showed no MUC immunoreactivity, MUC4, 5 and 6 were present from the early second trimester onwards. There was no significant difference between dysplasia and intestinal metaplasia, both categories …

Resistance to African black beetle (Heteronychus arator) in perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) infected with AR1 endophyte
… if increased concentration of paxilline immunoreactivity was associated with a reduction in feeding damage using a series of adult African black beetle (H. arator) feeding trials on closely related AR1-infected perennial ryegrasses (L. perenne). A negative relationship was established …

Characterizing Changes in the Brain During Hydrocephalic Development and Exploring Potential Treatment Strategies
… protein (GFAP) and RN1734 did not seem to change immunoreactivity to wildtype untreated levels. Increased immunoreactivity of TRPV4 and AQP1 was observed in CP of untreated and RN1734 treated Tmem67-/- rats. AQP4 and TRPV4 immunoreactivity increased in the subventricular zone and periventricular …

Morphological and Immunocytochemical Investigation of Canine Oligodendrogliomas
… associations were found between GFAP or EGFR immunoreactivity and tumor type or grade. The median percentage of Ki-67 immunoreactivity was significantly different between all tumor types and grades (p < 0.05), and was significantly higher in Grade III oligodendrogliomas than in both …

THE EFFCT OF LOW-LEVEL LEAD ON SEROTONIN EXPRESSION IN THE DEVELOPING MOUSE SUPERIOR OLIVARY COMPLEX AND SOMATOSENSORY CORTEX
… susceptible to Pb exposure, and Pb decreases the immunoreactivity of serotonin (5-HT) and VMAT2 in the lateral superior olive (LSO). During early developmental, "non-serotonergic" sensory neurons, including LSO neurons and thalamocortical neurons of the somatosensory system, transiently take up …

Functional Elucidation and Characterization of GPA2/GPB5 and Its Receptor LGR1 in the Mosquito, Aedes Aegypti
… in adult mosquitoes. LGR1 transcript and immunoreactivity was detected in gut epithelia, which supported a pre-established ionoregulatory / osmoregulatory role in the alimentary canal of adult mosquitoes. Interestingly, strong and regionalized immunoreactivity was detected in the female …

Role of Cyclooxygenase Isoforms in Peripheral Neuropathic Pain Model
… spinal cord were significantly increased. The immunoreactivity of COX-2 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) were also increased in the lesioned spinal nerve, which were closely correlated with neuropatic mechanical hyperalgesia. The data thus suggests that the COX isoforms in the nervous system …

Cytokine secretion in glioblastoma patients
… necrosis grade or increase in tumour grade. COX immunoreactivity was detected in all cases with an average of 29.1% positive cells. However, COX immunoreactivity was not significantly correlated with either necrosis or tumour grade. VEGF immunoreactivity occurred in 58.3% of cells and …
