Abstract
Antisera were raised in rabbits against dopamine or noradrenaline conjugated to thyroglobulin with glutaraldehyde. These antisera, tested in enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and immunohistochemistry specifically recognized their homologous antigens. With the aid of anti-tyrosine hydroxylase, anti-aromatic aminoacid decarboxylase, anti-dopamine-beta-hydroxylase, anti-dopamine, and anti-noradrenaline antisera, immunohistochemical reactions were performed on glutaraldehyde fixed sections of sheep diencephalon in order to determine the presence of dopamine in the catecholaminergic group A15. Perikarya of this nucleus were stained with anti-tyrosine hydroxylase, anti-aromatic aminoacid decarboxylase and anti-dopamine, but not with anti-dopamine-beta-hydroxylase or anti-noradrenaline. Both of these latter antisera stained fibers within this area. So as recently found in the rat, we could conclude that dopamine is present in group A15 of the sheep.Entities:
