Identification and initial characterization of adipokinetic hormone-like immunoreactive peptides of rat origin.

An antiserum was raised to adipokinetic hormone (AKH), a 10-amino-acid-residue peptide found in the arthropod Locusta migratoria. The antiserum demonstrated not only immunocytochemical reaction with some other arthropod species, but also stained many areas of the rat CNS, certain islet cells of the pancreas, and some anterior pituitary cells. The pattern of staining was unlike that for any known rat neuropeptide or hormone. With the antiserum used as the detection system, HPLC and high-voltage electrophoresis yielded two peptides that were purified to homogeneity from rat hypothalamic median eminence. These peptides have unique amino acid compositions, indicating they may be heretofore unknown rat neuropeptides.[1]
