The presence and distribution of crustacean cardioactive peptide in the central and peripheral nervous system of the stick insect, Baculum extradentatum
Abstract
Crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP)-like immunoreactivity was localized and quantified in the central and peripheral nervous system of the Vietnamese stick insect, Baculum extradentatum, using immunohistochemistry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
