Abstract
Antisera against oLH1, βoLH and βhFSH were used to localize gonadotropic cells in the pars distalis of Cercopithecus aethiops and Papio hamadryas. Three separate cell types were observed for FSH and LH: 85% of immunohistochemically identified gonadotropic cells reacted to all the various antisera; 10% reacted with the anti-βLH antibody only; and 5% with the anti-βhFSH antibody only. Comparisons between adjacent serial sections treated with various antisera, other than anti-gonadotropic hormones, demonstrated that the “gonadotropic cells” of these monkeys did not respond to these antisera. Des anticorps anti-LH ovine, anti-βLH ovine et anti-βFSH humaine ont été utilisés pour localiser les cellules gonadotropes dans la pars distalis de l'hypophyse des Singes Cercopithecus aethiops et Papio hamadryas. Trois catégories cellulaires distinctes, réagissant avec des anticorps anti-hormones gonadotropes, ont été observées. 85% des cellules immunoréactives identifiées en tant que cellules gonadotropes réagissent simultanément avec les différents anticorps mentionnés; 10% des cellules gonadotropes réagissent seulement avec l'anticorps anti-βoLH et 5% de ces cellules seulement avec l'anticorps anti-βhFSH. La comparaison avec des coupes adjacentes traitées par divers anticorps autres que les anticorps anti-gonadotropines prouve que les “cellules gonadotropes” de ces Singes ne réagissent jamais simultanément avec l'un ou l'autre de ces anticorps.Keywords
