Short-Term Adrenalectomy Increases Glucocorticoid and Mineralocorticoid Receptor mRNA in Selective Areas of the Developing Hippocampus
(Elsevier, 1993-10)
In the central nervous system, adrenal steroids bind to two different types of corticosteroid receptors: glucocorticoid (GR) or mineralocorticoid (MR). In vitro biochemical and autoradiographic techniques have been used ...
Delta opioid receptor mRNA distribution in the brain: Comparison to delta receptor binding and proenkephalin mRNA
(Elsevier, 1993)
The recent cloning of the mouse delta opioid receptor (Evans et al., 1992; Kieffer et al., 1992) has demonstrated it to be a member of the seven transmembrane G-protein coupled family of neurotransmitter receptors. The ...
Cloning and pharmacological characterization of a rat [mu] opioid receptor
(Elsevier, 1993-11)
We have isolated a rat cDNA clone that displays 75% amino acid homology with the mouse [delta] and rat [kappa] opioid receptors. The cDNA (designated pRMuR-12) encodes a protein of 398 amino acids comprising, in part, seven ...
Hormonal effects on extra- and intraneural mechanism: an integrative approach
(Elsevier, 1993-12-01)
Multiple HPA profiles in endogenous depression: Effect of age and sex on cortisol and beta-endorphin
(Elsevier, 1993-01-15)
We have previously shown that a number of depressed patients demonstrated a failure to suppress corticotrophic secretion, as measured by [beta]-Endorphin/[beta]-Lipotropin ([beta]-End/[beta]-LPH levels), following dexamethasone ...
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 = ...
