Temperature as a dependent variable in the study of cholinergic mechanisms
(Elsevier, 1988)
Dilsaver, Steven C. and Norman F. Alessi: Temperature as a Dependent Variable in the Study of Cholinergic Mechanisms. Prog. Neuro-Psychopharmacol. & Biol. Psychiat. 1988, : 1-32. 1. 1. Change in core temperature over ...
The preferential release of beta-endorphin from the anterior pituitary lobe by Corticotropin Releasing Factor (CRF)
(Elsevier, 1986)
Although a number of investigators have shown that release of ACTH is accompanied by the release of Beta-endorphin ([beta]-End) and Beta-lipotropin ([beta]-LPH), the proportion of the latter two peptides released with ...
Steady state levels of pro-dynorphin-related end products in the striatum and substantia nigra of the adult rhesus monkey
(Elsevier, 1985)
Analysis of an acid extract of the striatum of the rhesus monkey revealed that the molar ratio of dynorphin A(1-8)-sized material and dynorphin (A(1-17)-sized material is approximately 1:1. In addition, the molar ratios ...
Fever and leukocytosis: Physical manifestations of bipolar affective disorder?
(Elsevier, 1988)
1. 1. Fever and leukocytosis are occasionally observed in patients with psychiatric disorders. A thorough medical evaluation does not always reveal the origin of these abnormalities.2. 2. We report the case histories of ...
Behavioral effects of dynorphin1-13 in the mouse and rat: Initial observations
(Elsevier, 1980)
Dynorphin is a recently identified, pharmacologically potent endogenous opioid peptide. Heretofore it has not been characterized for its behavioral effects. The effects of centrally infused dynorphin upon a variety of ...
[D-Ala2,(F5)Phe4]-dynorphin1-13-NH2 (DAFPHEDYN): A potent analog of dynorphin 1-13
(Elsevier, 1987)
Intracerebroventricular administration of the dynorphin analog, [D-Ala2,(F5)Phe4]-dynorphin1-13-NH2 (DAFPHEDYN) in rats produced diuresis and profound analgesia. Both effects were antagonized by central administration of ...
Gamma-melanotropin response to ovine corticotropin releasing factor in normal humans
(Elsevier, 1987)
Plasma [gamma]-melanotropin was measured by a [gamma]3MSH-specific radioimmunoassay before and after a single bolus intravenous infusion of ovine corticotropin releasing factor (oCRF; 0.1 ug/kg) in seven normal men. A ...
Telemetric measurement of core temperature in pharmacological research: Validity and reliability
(Elsevier, 1990)
1. The authors present data establishing the reliability and validity of a method for telemetrically measuring core temperature.2. The method is designed to be of particular utility to psychobiological researchers.
Interaction of opiate peptide and noradrenalin systems: Light microscopic studies
(Elsevier, 1980)
In this light microscopic immunocyto-chemical study [beta]-Endorphin ([beta]-END), leu-enkephalin and dopamine-[beta]hydroxylase (DBH) antisera are used to obtain an overview of the interaction of the noradrenergic and ...
