[kappa]1 Receptor mRNA Distribution in the Rat CNS: Comparison to [kappa] Receptor Binding and Prodynorphin mRNA
(Elsevier, 1994-04)
Three opioid receptor types have been identified in the CNS and periphery that are referred to as [mu], [delta], and [kappa]. The present study examines the mRNA distribution of the [kappa]1 receptor in the rat brain and ...
Adverse effects associated with the short-term treatment of panic disorder with imipramine, alprazolam or placebo
(Elsevier, 1994-03)
Side effects play a significant role in the selection of drugs to be used in panic disorder/agoraphobia whose polyphobic symptomatology often includes a suspiciousness about taking drugs and a fear of undesired side effects ...
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 ...
TRH attenuates scopolamine-induced memory impairment in humans
(Springer-Verlag, 1990-03)
The brain tripeptide thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) has been demonstrated to facilitate cholinergic neurotransmission. To test its interaction with the cholinergic system in humans, high-dose TRH (0.5 mg/kg) or placebo ...
Characterization of pro-opiomelanocortin processing in heterologous neuronal cells that express PC2 mRNA
(Elsevier, 1993-05)
We have investigated processing of monkey pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) following transfection into heterologous neuronal Neuro 2A (N2A) cells. In several separately transfected stable cell lines (termed N2A/POMC2-like; N = ...
Controlled dosing of nicotine via an I ntranasal N icotine A erosol D elivery D evice (INADD)
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-09)
The present report describes an I ntranasal N icotine A erosol D elivery D evice (INADD) employing an artist's airbrush as aerosolizer and precise, electromechanical control of spray duration. It was designed for the ...
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 ...
Characterization of [beta]-endorphin-related peptides in the caudal medulla oblongata and hypothalamus of the prenatal, postnatal and adult rat
(Elsevier, 1991-09-19)
A comparison was made of [beta]-endorphin (B-END) concentrations versus post-translation products during the perinatal period in the hypothalamus and the caudal medulla oblongata. The concentration of B-END-like immunoreactivity ...
