Distribution of ?-Conotoxin GVIA binding sites in teleost cerebellar and electrosensory neurons

Abstract: The distribution of omega-Conotoxin GVIA (CgTx) binding sites was used to localize putative N-type Ca2+ channels in an electrosensory cerebellar lobule, the eminentia granularis pars posterior, and in the electrosensory lateral line lobe of a gymnotiform teleost (Apteronotus leptorhynchus). The binding sites for CgTx revealed by an anti-CgTx antibody had a consistent distribution on somatic and dendritic membranes of specific cell types in both structures. The distribution of CgTx binding was unaffected by co-… Show more

“…The medial segment (MS) receives input from ampullary receptors, whereas the centromedial (MS), centrolateral (CLS), and lateral (LS) segments receive a common input from tuberous electroreceptors. The cell types and neural circuitry of each map are believed to be equivalent, although differences in the cytochemistry and physiology of cells between segments are apparent (Shumway, 1989; Metzner and Heiligenberg, 1991; Turner and Moroz, 1995; Tharani et al, 1996; Turner et al, 1996; Metzner and Juranek, 1997).…”

“…The EGp differs from the CCb in representing a cerebellar lobule specific to electroreceptive teleosts that provides electrosensory feedback to the ELL via parallel fiber projections (Bastian, 1999). In addition, several aspects of EGp structure (i.e., a dorsal position of granule cells), granule cells in the stage of migration, and cytochemical properties (NADPH‐diaphorase, ω‐conotoxin GVIA binding) are very closely aligned with those of developing mammalian cerebellum (Turner and Moroz, 1995; Tharani et al, 1996; Zupanc, 1999). It is interesting that Kv3.3b is expressed in mouse cerebellar Purkinje cells only after postnatal day 10 and coincident with the migration of cerebellar granule cells and maturation of Purkinje cell morphology (Goldman‐Wohl et al, 1994).…”
