Two hours after the injection of (3-[125I]iodotyrosyl3) neurotensin into the striatum, a labeling was observed in the ipsilateral substantia nigra. In the present study, we demonstrated by HPLC that this radioactivity corresponded to intact neurotensin and to degradation products of this peptide. This finding provides the first clearcut evidence that a neuropeptide can be internalized and retrogradely transported in brain neurons. Therefore, the fact that intact neurotensin can be seen to exist over a long period of time in the cell body suggests that the retrograde transport process could perhaps be involved in the long-term effects of neuropeptides.
