Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin I and Vicia villosa agglutinin bind specifically to the vomeronasal axons in the accessory olfactory bulb of the rat.

Abstract

The binding of 21 lectins to the accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) of the rat was examined by histochemistry. Two lectins [Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin I (BSL-I) and Vicia villosa agglutinin (VVA)] bound specifically to the vomeronasal (VN) axons in the AOB. Seven lectins (Datura stramonium lectin, Erythrina cristagalli lectin, Lycoperisicon esculentum lectin, Ricinus communis agglutinin I, soybean agglutinin, Solanum tuberosum lectin, and Ulex europaeus agglutinin) bound to both VN axons in AOB and olfactory axons in the main olfactory bulb. BSL-I and VVA are useful as the marker of VN axons. This selective binding of lectins indicates the presence of specific glycoconjugates on the surface of VN axons.
