Immunohistochemical localization of a melanin concentrating hormone-like peptide in the rat brain
G Skofitsch, DM Jacobowitz, N Zamir - Brain research bulletin, 1985 - Elsevier
Using antisera generated in rabbits against salmon melanin concentrating hormone (MCH)
coupled to human thyroglobulin, the distribution of MCH-like immunoreactivity was mapped
throughout the rat central nervous system. The distribution of MCH-like immunoreactivity in
rat brain is unique and different from the distribution of other neuropeptides. MCH-like
immunoreactive perikarya and fibers are predominant in the posterior hypothalamic area,
mostly in the medial forebrain bundle—lateral hypothalamic area subzona incerta and the …
