Postnatal development of ACTH and [alpha]-MSH in the medulla oblongata of rat: [alpha]-MSH is the predominant peptide
(Elsevier, 1985)
ACTH and [alpha]-MSH levels were measured by radioimmunoassays in extracts of the caudal medulla oblongata of developing rats on postnatal (P) days 1-42 at 7 day intervals, and in adult rats. From P1 to adulthood, ACTH ...
Diurnal Regulation of Glucocorticoid Receptor and Mineralocorticoid Receptor mRNAs in Rat Hippocampus
(Elsevier, 1993-04)
The present studies were undertaken to determine whether hippocampal glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) biosynthesis, as inferred from mRNA expression, exhibit diurnal patterns of activation ...
Chronic administration of the delta opioid receptor agonist (+)BW373U86 and antidepressants on behavior in the forced swim test and BDNF mRNA expression in rats
(Springer-Verlag, 2005-11)
Selective delta opioid receptor agonists have been shown to produce antidepressant-like behavioral effects and increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA expression when given acutely, but the chronic effects ...
Genetic Map of the Region around grizzled (gr) and mocha (mh) on Mouse Chromosome 10, Homologous to Human 19p13.3
(Elsevier, 1994-10)
Grizzled (gr) is a recessive mouse mutation resulting in a gray coat color and reduced perinatal viability. Mocha (mh) is one of several recessive mouse mutants characterized by platelet storage pool disorder, pigment ...
Effects of single and repeated electroconvulsive therapy sessions on plasma ACTH, prolactin, growth hormone and cortisol concentrations
(Elsevier, 1991)
To study the effects of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) on hormone release, we measured circulating concentrations of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), prolactin (PRL), growth hormone (GH) and cortisol (CORT) immediately ...
Prodynorphin peptide immunocytochemistry in rhesus monkey brain
(Elsevier, 1985)
The present study describes the immunocytochemical distribution of peptides derived from the prodynorphin precursor in the brain of the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta). Animals were treated with colchicine (intracerebrove ...
Discordant changes in plasma ACTH and [beta]-lipotropin/[beta]-endorphin levels in Clshing's disease patients with depression
(Elsevier, 1992-11)
Cushing's Disease is often associated with a depressive syndrome, with mood, vegetative, and cognitive abnormalities of variable severity. In 11 patients with (pituitary ACTH-dependent) Cushing's disease (10 women, 1 man), ...
A double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the effect of imipramine on TRH-induced urinary urgency in healthy men
(Elsevier, 1992)
We studied the effect of imipramine (IMI) on thyroid releasing hormone (TRH)-induced urinary urgency as a way of investigating the mechanism of the beneficial effect of IMI on enuresis. In a double-blind study, 12 normal, ...
Fluorescence in situ hybridization establishes the order cen-DXS28(C7)-DXS67(B24)-DXS68(L1)-tel in human chromosome Xp21.3
(Elsevier, 1992-06)
We report here on the order of three DNA markers, C7, B24, and L1, based on the arrangement of their fluorescently labeled hybridization sites in interphase cell nuclei. The three markers map distal to the Duchenne muscular ...
