Proopiomelanocortin peptide immunocytochemistry in rhesus monkey brain
(Elsevier, 1984-12)
The immunocytochemical distribution of Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) peptides ([beta]-endorphin, ACTH, [alpha]-MSH, 16K fragment) was studied in the brain of the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta). Some animals were administered ...
Strategies for studying opioid peptide regulation at the gene, message and protein levels
(Elsevier, 1984)
Three opioid peptide precursors have been isolated and characterized in endocrine and nervous tissue: pro-opiomelanocortin, pro-enkephalin, and pro-dynorphin. Since each of those opioid peptide systems have been extensively ...
Β-Endorphin/ACTH immunocytochemistry in the CNS of the lizard Anolis carolinensis : Evidence for a major mesencephalic cell group
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1984-11-10)
The immunocytochemical distribution of Β-endorphin and other proopiomelanocortin (POMC) peptides in the central nervous system of the lizard Anolis carolinensis was determined. Colchicine pretreatment was used to enhance ...
Anatomical relationship between opioid peptides and receptors in rhesus monkey brain
(Elsevier, 1984-12)
To determine whether opioid peptide-receptor pharmacological associations found in vitro (e.g., enkephalin-[delta], dynorphin-[kappa]) predict anatomical relationships in situ, immunocytochemical and receptor autoradiographic ...
Localization of neurons containing pro-opiomelanocortin-related peptides in the hypothalamus and midbrain of the lizard, Anolis carolinensis evidence for region-specific processing of [beta]-endorphin
(Elsevier, 1984-12-24)
Immunohistochemical analyses of the lizard brain, following colchicine pretreatment, revealed two populations of POMC-producing cell bodies located in medial-basal hypothalamus and the mesencephalic tegmentum. Analyses of ...
Acute systemic administration of morphine selectively increases mu opioid receptor binding in the rat brain
(Elsevier, 1984-12)
Opioid receptor binding, including the mu, delta, and kappa receptor subtypes, was compared in morphine-injected and control rats. Brain tissues were homogenized and centrifuged either one or two times prior to receptor ...
