Neuropeptides and Large Dense Core Vesicles

We continue to be recognized by for the quantity and quality of our Neuropeptide and Neuropeptide Receptor Antibodies for studying Neurotransmission and Pain.

We wanted to feature an new article referencing use of our Guinea Pig Substance Antibody. Dr. Richard Mains and his team shed light on the function and behavior of large dense core
vesicles (LDCVs) concluding that under basal conditions, LDCVs move faster away from the soma than toward the soma, but fewer LDCVs travel anterograde than retrograde. Stimulation decreased average anterograde velocity and increases granule pausing. Data from antibody uptake, quantification of enzyme secretion and appearance of pHluorin fluorescence demonstrate distributed release of peptides all along the axon, not just at terminals.

NPY Y2R and IHC-Mouse Distal Colon

Lixin Wang, Guillaume Gourcerol, Pu-Qing Yuan, S. Vincent Wu, Mulugeta Million, Muriel Larauche, and Yvette Taché. Peripheral peptide YY inhibits propulsive colonic motor function through Y2 receptor in conscious mice. Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol (November 5, 2009). doi:10.1152/ajpgi.00349.2009.
...Note: Excellent IHC staining of myenteric plexus and submucosal (mouse distal colon) tissue-Free floating submucosal and LMMP whole mounts of both proximal and distal colon from 3 naïve mice were treated in 10% normal goat serum each for 30 min, and followed by incubation with polyclonal rabbit anti- NPY Y2 Receptor diluted at 1:1,000 (Neuromics, Inc., Edina, MN)...
