Quantitative in vitro receptor autoradiography of [125I][D-Tyr1,(NMe)Phe3]NPFF was used to study the regional distribution of neuropeptide FF receptors in rodent and lagomorph brain. In rat, mouse, rabbit, and Afghan pika [125I][D-Tyr1,(NMe)Phe3]NPFF binding sites were enriched in the superficial layers of dorsal horn of the spinal cord and in parabrachial nucleus, central gray matter, hypothalamus, and reunions thalamic nucleus. In other neuroanatomical regions, important species differences in NPFF receptor patterns are observed. In marked contrast, the brain and the spinal cord of the Octodon degus are devoid of NPFF receptors. The present study shows that in different species regional variations in brain NPFF receptor binding occur.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007793 Lagomorpha An order of small mammals comprising two families, Ochotonidae (pikas) and Leporidae (RABBITS and HARES). Head and body length ranges from about 125 mm to 750 mm. Hares and rabbits have a short tail, and the pikas lack a tail. Rabbits are born furless and with both eyes and ears closed. HARES are born fully haired with eyes and ears open. All are vegetarians.

D009830 Olfactory Bulb Ovoid body resting on the CRIBRIFORM PLATE of the ethmoid bone where the OLFACTORY NERVE terminates. The olfactory bulb contains several types of nerve cells including the mitral cells, on whose DENDRITES the olfactory nerve synapses, forming the olfactory glomeruli. The accessory olfactory bulb, which receives the projection from the VOMERONASAL ORGAN via the vomeronasal nerve, is also included here.

D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D006624 Hippocampus A curved elevation of GRAY MATTER extending the entire length of the floor of the TEMPORAL HORN of the LATERAL VENTRICLE (see also TEMPORAL LOBE). The hippocampus proper, subiculum, and DENTATE GYRUS constitute the hippocampal formation. Sometimes authors include the ENTORHINAL CORTEX in the hippocampal formation.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
