Résumé
The caudal neurosecretory system (CNSS) is a neuroendocrine complex whose existence is specific to fishes. Structurally, it has many similarities with the hypothalamic-neurohypophyseal complex of other vertebrates. However, it differs regarding its position at the caudal end of the spinal cord and the nature of the hormones it secretes, the most important being urotensins. The CNSS was first described more than 60 years ago, but its embryological origin is totally unknown and its role is still poorly understood. Paradoxically, it is almost no longer studied today. Recent developments in imaging and genome editing could make it possible to resume investigations on CNSS in order to solve the mysteries that still surround it. Le système neurosécréteur caudal, l’autre système « neurohypophysaire » des poissons. Le système neurosécréteur caudal (SNSC) est un complexe neuroendocrinien propre aux poissons. Sur le plan structural, il présente de nombreuses similitudes avec le complexe hypothalamo-neurohypophysaire d’autres vertébrés. Il s’en distingue toutefois par sa position, à l’extrémité caudale de la moelle épinière, et par la nature des hormones qu’il sécrète, les plus importantes étant les urotensines. Le SNSC a été décrit pour la première fois il y a plus de 60 ans, mais son origine embryologique est totalement inconnue et son rôle reste mal compris. Paradoxalement, il n’est presque plus étudié aujourd’hui. Les développements récents en imagerie et en génie génétique pourraient justifier la reprise d’investigations sur le SNSC afin de lever les mystères qui continuent de l’entourer.
