Descripción
In reptiles as in other vertebrates, multiple forms of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) within a single brain have been identified. In this group the following GnRH molecular variants have been characterized either by direct or indirect methods: chicken GnRH I (cGnRH-I), chicken GnRH II (cGnRH-II), salmon GnRH (sGnRH) and several unidentified GnRH-like forms. In the present study GnRH variants were investigated in brain extracts of the lizard Tupinambis teguixin (= T. merinae) by combining high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) followed by radioimmunoassays (RIA). Two peaks showing GnRH immunoreactivity with the elution position of synthetic mammalian GnRH (mGnRH) and cGnRH-II were detected. Both peaks were further analyzed with different radioimmunoassay systems specific for mGnRH, cGnRH-I, and cGnRH-II. Pooled fractions corresponding to the first eluting peak showed no cross-reactivity when analyzed with a cGnRH-I specific assay and logit-log displacement curves were not significantly different from those of synthetic mGnRH with homologous RIA systems. The second peak showed immunological characteristics of cGnRH-II when analyzed with a specific antiserum. The first ir-GnRH peak was selected for further RP-HPLC purification showing similar chromatographic behavior as mGnRH synthetic standard. We demonstrated the absence of cGnRH-I in this lizard using well-characterized antisera. (C) 2000 Academic Press.
