Peptides, 23(11), 1925-1932 (2002-11-15)
We have developed a semi-intact preparation-consisting of an isolated oviduct with abdominal ganglia VII and VIII intact and attached-with which to characterize the effects on oviduct contraction, of peptides that are bath applied to CNS tissues. The work presented here

Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 160(2), 850-856 (1989-04-28)
We have isolated a neuropeptide, related to the Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2 family, from the thoracic nervous system of the locust, Schistocerca gregaria, using a purification system based on the radioimmunoassay of high pressure liquid chromatography fractions. The primary sequence of this locust

The distribution and actions of FMRFamide-related peptides (FaRPs) in the corpora cardiaca of the locust Locusta migratoria were studied. Antisera to FMRFamide and SchistoFLRFamide (PDVDHVFLRFamide) label neuronal processes that impinge on glandular cells in the glandular lobe of the corpora

We describe a nonpeptide mimetic analog of an invertebrate peptide receptor. Benzethonium chloride (Bztc) is an agonist of the SchistoFLRFamide (PDVDHVFLRFamide) receptors found on locust oviducts. Bztc competitively displaces [125I-labeled Y1]SchistoFLRFamide binding to both high- and low-affinity receptors of membrane

Peptides, 16(7), 1181-1186 (1995-01-01)
In the oviduct of Locusta migratoria, an inhibitory neuropeptide, PDVDHVFLRFamide (SchistoFLRFamide) has separate binding and activation regions. VFLRFamide is the minimum sequence required for binding, which is comparable to the parent peptide, whereas the His residue, which does not contribute
