Immunocytochemical demonstration of melanin-concentrating hormone and proopiomelanocortin-like products in the brain of the trout and carp (1989)
Journal Article

Immunocytochemistry on frozen sections revealed that in both the trout and the carp, parvocellular neurones located in the medial basal hypothalamus (medial nucleus lateralis tuberis) were immunostained by antisera against three molecules known to be...

An immunological study of the secretory activity of neurons producing melanin-concentrating hormone in a teleost (1989)
Journal Article

The melanin-concentrating hormone is a general vertebrate neurosecretory peptide which, in bony fish, serves as a neurohypophysial hormone influencing pigmentary changes in response to background colour. Young carp were reared for six months in white... Read More about An immunological study of the secretory activity of neurons producing melanin-concentrating hormone in a teleost.
