title: [Characterization of immunoreactive neurons in the central nervous system of the leech Theromyzon tessulatum using monoclonal antibodies].
abstract: Two mouse hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies Tt9 and Tt 159 directed against antigens of supraesophageal ganglia of the leech T. tessulatum were selected to study the neuroendocrine control of osmoregulation in this species. One, Tt 159 reacted with an antigenic determinant of cells recognized by an anti-angiotensin antibody, the other, Tt 9, with neurons immunoreactive to the anti-vasopressin.
