Tóm tắt

By means of whole-mount immunohistochemistry, putative inhibitory (GABAergic) neural structures were identified in the central and peripheral nervous system of the tubificid worm, Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri. In the supraoesophageal ganglion (brain) only few strongly labelled cells were observed. However, in its commissural part a high number of stained nerve fibres, arising mainly from the ventral nerve cord and prostomium, occurred. Except for the suboesophageal ganglion the arrangement of γ-amino butyric acid-immunoreactive (GABA-IR) structures proved to be identical in each VNC ganglion. Behind the first segmental nerves three pairs of heavily stained neurones were located. Their processes (both ipsi- and contralateral) form four bundles of fine-fibred polysegmental interneuronal tracts that run close to the dorsal giant axons from the terminal ganglion to the suboesophageal one without interruption. A few small motoneurons and a pair of large ones with contralateral processes were also identified. A bipolar (presumably sensory) neuron was located at the root of each second segmental nerve. GABA-IR neurons were also found in the stomatogastric ganglia and pharyngeal wall; however, the latter structure had a well-developed fibre network, as well. Present results suggest that GABA acts as a common neurotransmitter in sensory, interneuronal and motor system of L. hoffmeisteri. The possible functional role of the identified GABA-IR neural structures in locomotion, escape and withdrawal reflexes in tubificid worms is discussed.
