Tyrosine hydroxylase mRNA-containing neurons in the medial amygdaloid nucleus and the reticular nucleus of the thalamus in the Syrian hamster
(Elsevier, 1993-11)
To confirm previous immunocytochemical findings in colchicine-treated Syrian hamsters, in situ hybridization was used to investigate the distribution of TH mRNA-containing cells in the medial amygdaloid nucleus (Me) and ...
Isolation and characterization of the xenopus laevis cdna and genomic homologs of neuropeptide Y
(Elsevier, 1994-05)
We have isolated Xenopus laevis cDNA and genomic clones encoding the neuropeptide Y (NPY) mRNA and gene using a probe from the human NPY gene. The longest open reading frame in the cDNA encodes a peptide 76% identical to ...
Effects of fluoxetine on weight gain and food intake in smokers who reduce nicotine intake
(Elsevier, 1991)
The effect of fluoxetine hydrochloride, a 5-HT uptake inhibitor (60 mg/day PO), in preventing weight gain associated with nicotine reduction was investigated in participants in a double-blind, placebo-controlled smoking-cessation ...
Cloning and expression of the A 2a adenosine receptor from guinea pig brain
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1994-05)
A full-length complementary DNA (cDNA) clone encoding the guinea pig brain A 2 adenosine receptor has been isolated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and low-stringency-hybridization screening of a guinea pig brain cDNA ...
Glucosylceramide in the nervous system - A mini-review
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1994-05)
A reviewer of this manuscript has recommended that I warn the reader that the hypotheses offered here do not have enough experimental support to make them widely accepted.
Pulsatile LH secretion in women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS): Evidence for normal neuroregulation of the menstrual cycle
(Elsevier, 1992)
The premenstrual syndrome (PMS) has been proposed to result from excessive exposure to and/or withdrawal of brain opioid activity during the luteal phase. Because hypothalamic opioids are believed to modulate GnRH secretion, ...
Asymmetric cross-sensitization to the locomotor stimulant effects of phencyclidine and MK-801,
(Elsevier, 1994-08)
Chronic administration of a psychomotor stimulant has been shown to produce progressively enhanced effects, a phenomenon called "reverse tolerance" or sensitization. Sensitization which develops to the psychomotor stimulant ...
Wortmannin Blocks Goldfish Retinal Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase and Neurite Outgrowth
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-04)
The goldfish retina has been used extensively for the study of nerve regeneration. A role for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) in neurite outgrowth from goldfish retinal explants has been examined by means of wortmannin ...
Cloning and characterization of a pharmacologically distinct A1 adenosine receptor from guinea pig brain
(Elsevier, 1994-10)
Three full-length cDNA clones encoding the guinea pig A1 adenosine receptor have been isolated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and low-stringency hybridization screening of a guinea pig brain cDNA library. These three ...
