title: Annexins in the gastropod nervous system.
abstract: We studied immunologically the distribution of the phospholipid- and Ca(2+)-binding proteins annexin I and annexin V in the nervous system of the molluscs, Aplysia californica and Helix pomatia. Within the Aplysia central nervous system we identified annexin I-immunoreactive neurons in the cerebral, buccal and abdominal ganglia. Annexin V-like material is restricted to neurons in the pedal ganglia. The Helix central nervous system contains annexin I-immunoreactive neurons in cerebral, buccal, visceral, left and right parietal, and pedal ganglia. Annexin V-immunoreactive material is present in neurons of the pleural, left and right parietal, and visceral ganglia.
