Atrial natriuretic factor receptor subtypes in the rat central nervous system.
In this study we investigated the presence and anatomical location of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) receptor subtypes in the rat central nervous system using in vitro autoradiographic and cross-linking techniques. 125I-ANF-(Ser99-Tyr126) served as a labeled ligand, whereas ANF-(Ser99-Tyr126) and two peptides endowed with selectivity for ANF-C receptor--namely, C-ANF (des-[Gln116-Gly120] ANF-[...
متن کاملOpioid receptor subtypes differentially modulate serotonin efflux in the rat central nervous system.
Opioid receptor subtypes may have site-specific effects and play different roles in modulating serotonergic neurotransmission in the mammalian central nervous system. To test this hypothesis, we used in vivo microdialysis to measure changes in extracellular serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) in response to local infusion of mu-, delta-, and kappa-opioid receptor ligands into the dorsal raphe...
متن کاملADENOSINE IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Besides being a metabolite of nucleotides like ATP, adenosine is a mediator of neuronal function in the central nervous system. Its actions are mediated by at least three extracellular receptors. In this review different aspects of adenosine such as biosynthesis, release, inactivation and its receptors are discussed. It also covers pre- and postsynaptic effects as well as postreceptor mecha...
متن کاملAutoradiographic localization and characterization of atrial natriuretic peptide binding sites in the rat central nervous system and adrenal gland.
Atrial natriuretic peptides (ANP) have recently been identified in both heart and CNS. These peptides possess potent natriuretic, diuretic, and vasorelaxant activities, and are all apparently derived from a single prohormone. Specific ANP binding sites have been characterized in the adrenal zona glomerulosa and kidney cortex, and one study reported ANP binding sites in the CNS. However, a detai...
متن کاملEvaluation of changes in testosterone concentration of the rat central nervous system following progesterone administration
Neurosteroids are steroids that are produced in the central nervous system (CNS). While progesterone and dehydroepiandostendione (the precursors of testosterone) are among the identified neurosteroids, it is not clear that testosterone could be considered as a neurosteroid. The testosterone synthesis has been demonstrated in the brain of castrated frog, but not in the rat brain. In the present ...
