    Notes: Summary Calcium-binding protein (CaBP) has been localized with the immunoperoxidase method using antiserum against purified chick duodenal CaBP. Different preparative procedures were employed to investigate the experimental conditions possibly responsible for the contradictory reports in the literature of the precise cellular localization of CaBP. Freeze substitution, frozen sections followed by fixation and coagulant and non-coagulant fixatives were used with appropriate control sections to demonstrate that the true localization of CaBP in the chick duodenum is in the absorptive cell cytoplasm. The goblet cell localization reported in the literature seems to be a diffusion artifact due to inadequate fixation. CaBP was also localized in several other tissues. In the hen uterus, the tubular glands beneath the surface epithelium showed intense reaction. In the kidney, CaBP was present in the cells of the straight and convoluted segments of distal tubules. The cortex of the chick cerebellum showed the CaBP in Purkinje cells. The entire dendritic trees contained the reaction product. No other neurons in the molecular or the granular layer were stained. In the deep cerebellar nuclei, all neurons were negative and these were outlined by deeply staining axons of the Purkinje cells and their synaptic endings.

    Notes: Summary The presence of 28 kDa calbindin in human odontoblasts was studied by use of specific antibodies raised against chick duodenal 28 kDa calbindin, in immunofluorescence, immuno-peroxidase, and electron-microscopic labelling experiments. The calbindin-like protein was detected mainly in the cytoplasm of odontoblast cell bodies, in their processes and occasionally in their nuclei. Correspondingly, at the ultrastructural level, immunoreactive material was associated with the cytosol, microfilaments and cilia. These findings suggest that human odontoblasts express a 28 kDa vitamin D-dependent calcium-binding protein, unlike those of rats and mice in which ameloblasts are the only cells immunoreactive for the protein.

    Notes: Summary Immunoreactivity for vitamin D-dependent calcium-binding protein (CaBP) has been localized in nerve cell bodies and nerve fibres in the gastrointestinal tracts of guinea-pig, rat and man. CaBP immunoreactivity was found in a high proportion of nerve cell bodies of the myenteric plexus, particularly in the small intestine. It was also found in submucous neurons of the small and large intestines. Immunoreactive nerve fibres were numerous in the myenteric ganglia, and were also common in the submucous ganglia and in the intestinal mucosa. Immunoreactive fibres were rare in the circular and longitudinal muscle coats. In the myenteric ganglia of the guinea-pig small intestine the immunoreactivity is restricted to one class of nerve cell bodies, type-II neurons of Dogiel, which display calcium action potentials in their cell bodies. These neurons were also immunoreactive with antibodies to spot 35 protein, a calcium-binding protein from the cerebellum. From the distribution of their terminals and the electrophysiological properties of these neurons it is suggested they might be sensory neurons, or perhaps interneurons. The discovery of CaBP in restricted sub-groups of enteric neurons may provide an important key for the analysis of their functions.
