Résumé

The cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) is a Cephalopod mollusk that lives in the English Channel and breeds in coastal spawning grounds in spring. A previous work showed that the control of egg-laying is monitored by different types of regulators, among which neuropeptides play a major role. They are involved in the integration of environmental cues, and participate in the transport of oocytes in the genital tract and in the secretion of capsular products. This study addresses a family of neuropeptides recently identified and suspected to be involved in the control of the reproduction processes. Detected by mass spectrometry and immunocytochemistry in the nerve endings of the accessory sex glands of the females and ovary, these neuropeptides are also identified in the hemolymph of egg-laying females demonstrating that they also have a hormone-like role. Released in the hemolymph by the sub-esophageal mass, a region that innervates the genital tract and the neurohemal area of the vena cava, in in vitro conditions these neuropeptides modulated oocyte transport and capsular secretion. Finally, in silico analyses indicated that these neuropeptides, initially called FLGamide, had extensive structural homology with orcokinin B, which motivated their name change.
