Characterization and localization of arginine vasotocin receptors in the brain and kidney of an amphibian

Creator:: Boyd, Sunny K.
Abstract:: Because arginine vasotocin (AVT) activates male sexual behaviors in the rough-skinned newt (Taricha granulosa), quantitative autoradiography with radiolabelled arginine vasopressin (³H-AVP) was used to localize and characterize putative AVT receptors in the brain of this amphibian. Binding of ³H-AVP to sites within the medial pallium was saturable, specific, reversible, of...
