The presence of vasoactive peptides known to control cardiovascular functions in mammals and sub-mammalian vertebrates was investigated in the sub-Antarctic icefish Champsocephalus gunnari. Western immuno blotting was used to demonstrate immunoreactive atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), angiotensin II (Ang II), bradykinin (BK) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) in heart homogenates. Immunohistochemistry was used to investigate the distribution of ANP, Ang II, BK and ET-1 in the cardiocytes of the three chambers of the heart (atrium, ventricle and the very short conus arteriosus).

Abstract

The presence of vasoactive peptides known to control cardiovascular functions in mammals and sub-mammalian vertebrates was investigated in the sub-Antarctic icefish Champsocephalus gunnari. Western immuno blotting was used to demonstrate immunoreactive atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), angiotensin II (Ang II), bradykinin (BK) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) in heart homogenates. Immunohistochemistry was used to investigate the distribution of ANP, Ang II, BK and ET-1 in the cardiocytes of the three chambers of the heart (atrium, ventricle and the very short conus arteriosus).
