Hormonal Regulation of MicroRNA Expression in Steroid Producing Cells of the Ovary, Testis and Adrenal Gland
BACKGROUND Given the emerging roles of miRNAs as potential posttranscriptional/posttranslational regulators of the steroidogenic process in adrenocortical and gonadal cells, we sought to determine miRNA profiles in rat adrenals from animals treated with vehicle, ACTH, 17α-E2 or dexamethasone. Key observations were also confirmed using hormone (Bt2cAMP)-treated mouse Leydig tumor cells, MLTC-1, ...
متن کاملEffects of Noise Exposure on the Volume of Adrenal Gland and Serum Levels of Cortisol in Rat
Background: Noise pollution is considered as a stressful factor in every day’s life of the industrial world. The present study was designed to investigate the probable effects of different time exposure of noise stress on histomorphometric changes of adrenal gland, plasma cortisol and body weight of the rat. Methods: Sixty adult male Wistar rats were divided into two series of short time noise ...
متن کاملThe effects of chlorodiazepoxide on the Bax gene expression in CA1 pyramidal cells of the newborn rat hippocampus
Background: Most drugs used by pregnant women can pass through the placenta and expose embryos and developing embryos to teratogenic effects. Due to the increased cellular damage of Bax gene expression, the effect of cholorodiazepoxide use during pregnancy on Bax gene expression in the hippocampus of neonatal rats was investigated. Materials and methods: After confirmation of pregnancy in Wista...
متن کاملSelective activation of noradrenaline and adrenaline producing cells in the cat's adrenal gland by hypothalamic stimulation.
BRtlCKE, Kaindl and Mayer 1 showed in 1952 that hypothalamic stimulation in the cat increased the adrenaline percentage of catechol amines in adrenal venous blood from about 11 per cent in the "resting" secretion to about 50 per cent. Since there is no consistent alteration in the adrenaline percentage during the increased secretion following carotid occlusion in the cat, the results of Briicke...
