“…The absence of TH-ir cells in the Vl of C. multicinctus is similar to other studies [Sas et al, 1990;Meek and Joosten, 1993;48 Castro et al, 2006]. However, this result differs from S. senegalensis and A. burtoni, which have at least sparse TH-ir cells in this nucleus [Rodríguez-Gómez et al, 2000;O'Connell et al, 2011]. The Vs of C. multicinctus has scattered TH-ir cells, similar to at least two other fish species [Meek and Joosten, 1993;Castro et al, 2006;Yamamoto et al, 2010].…”

Detailed neuroanatomical studies of model species are necessary to facilitate comparative experiments which test hypotheses relevant to brain evolution and function. Butterflyfishes (Chaetodontidae) boast numerous sympatric species that differ in social behavior, aggression and feeding ecology. However, the ability to test hypotheses relevant to brain function in this family is hindered by the lack of detailed neural descriptions. The cytoarchitecture of the telencephalon in the monogamous and territorial multiband butterflyfish, Chaetodon multicinctus, was determined with Nissl-stained serial sections and an immunohistochemical analysis of arginine vasotocin (AVT), serotonin, substance P and tyrosine hydroxylase. The ventral telencephalon was similar to that of other perciform fishes studied, with one major difference. A previously undescribed postcommissural region, the cuneate nucleus, was identified and putatively assigned to the ventral telencephalon. While the function of this nucleus is unknown, preliminary studies indicate that it may be part of a behaviorally relevant subpallial neural circuit that is modulated by AVT. The dorsal telencephalon consisted of 15 subdivisions among central, medial, lateral, dorsal and posterior zones. Several regions of the dorsal telencephalon of C. multicinctus differed from many other perciform fishes examined thus far. The nucleus taenia was in a more caudal position, and the central and lateral zones were enlarged. Within the lateral zone, an unusual third, ventral subdivision and a large-celled division were present. One hypothesis is that the enlarged ventral subdivision of the lateral zone (potential hippocampus homolog) relates to an enhancement of spatial learning or olfactory memory, which are important for this coral reef fish. This study provides the neuroanatomical basis for future comparative and evolutionary studies of brain organization and neuropeptide distributions, physiological studies of neural processing and insight into the complex social behavior of butterflyfishes.

“…In fact, in fish, the perikarya have been identified in the preoptic and tuberal hypothalamus [8,[23][24][25]33]. In amphibians [19,20], birds [16,17] and chelonian [9], galanin-Ir neurons were found in the hypothalamus, telencephalon, mesencephalon and rombencephalon.…”

“…Moreover, the expression of galanin is elevated following estrogen administration, neuronal activation, denervation and/or nerve injury, as well as during development [1]. The use of immunohistochemical methods revealed a wide distribution of galanin in the brain of several vertebrate groups: mammals [12][13][14][15], birds [16,17], reptiles [9,18], amphibians [19][20][21][22] and fish [8,[23][24][25].…”

Abstract:The distribution of galanin immunoreactive perikarya and nerve fibers in the brain of the desert lizard U. acanthinura was studied by means of immunofluorescence using an antiserum against rabbit galanin. The animals were captured during the activity season in March (wet season) just before reproduction period and in June (arid season) after ovulation period. Immunoreactive neurons were mostly detected in the mediobasal and the infundibular recess nuclei, the nucleus of the paraventricular organ, the paraventricular organ, the periventricular nucleus and in the anterior hypothalamus at the level of the periventricular nucleus, the paraventricular nucleus and the supraoptic nucleus. The differences in brain galanin expression between animals collected under both sets of environmental conditions indicated changes which occur during the annual and reproductive cycles. The wide hypothalamic and extrahypothalamic distribution of galanin immunoreactive fibers suggests that this peptide may have hypophysiotropic, neuromodulator and neurotransmitter roles in the lizard U.

Distribution of neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactivity in the brain of the senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis)

We present the results of an immunohistochemical study aimed at localizing the neuropeptide Y (NPY) in the brain of the Senegalese sole, Solea senegalensis, using an antiserum raised against porcine NPY and the streptavidin‐biotin‐peroxidase method. In this species, we have identified immunoreactive cells in the ventral and dorsal telencephalon, caudal preoptic area, ventrocaudal hypothalamus, optic tectum, torus longitudinalis, synencephalon and isthmic region. NPY‐immunoreactive fibers were profusely distributed throughout the brain, also reaching the adenohypophysis. The extensive distribution of NPY suggests an important role for this neuropeptide in a variety of physiological processes, including the neuroendocrine control of adenohypophyseal functions. Our results are compared with those obtained in other teleosts and discussed in relation to putative functions of NPY in the control of metabolism and reproduction in the Senegalese sole.
