The distribution of galanin-like immunoreactivity in the brain of the dogfish Scyliorhinus canicula was investigated using the indirect immunofluorescence technique. In the telencephalon, positive cells and fibers were located in the mid-caudal part of the area superficialis basalis, the n. septi caudoventralis and in the n. interstitialis commissurae anterioris. Most of the galanin-containing neurons observed in the hypothalamus were located in the magnocellular preoptic nucleus. Positive perikarya were also found in the n. lobi lateralis hypothalami and in the n. lateralis tuberis. A dense network of positive nerve processes was noted in the caudal part of the median eminence. In the dorso-caudal part of the diencephalon numerous immunoreactive neurons were seen in the recessus posterioris. A large bundle of galanin-containing fibers, which divided in two branches, was observed in the basal midbrain tegmentum. The widespread distribution of galanin-like material suggests that, in the dogfish, galanin may be involved in various brain functions including neuroendocrine regulations.
