Colocalization of proenkephalin peptides in rat brain neurons.
A serial, thin-section immunocytochemical study of the anatomical distribution of Leu-enkephalin and BAM-22P (an adrenal proenkephalin peptide) demonstrated that both immunoreactivities occur within the same neurons throughout brain. However, neither peptide immunoreactivity could be observed in neurons containing dynorphin A immunoreactivity. These results are consistent with the possibility t...
متن کاملReflex splanchnic nerve stimulation increases levels of proenkephalin A mRNA and proenkephalin A-related peptides in the rat adrenal medulla.
The effect of reflex splanchnic nerve stimulation on proenkephalin A biosynthesis was investigated in the rat adrenal medulla. Tissue levels of native [Met5]enkephalin-like immunoreactivity (IR) (measured by direct RIA of tissue extracts), cryptic [Met5]enkephalin-like IR (calculated as the increase in [Met5]enkephalin-like IR detected in tissue extracts after sequential digestion with trypsin ...
متن کاملPartial colocalization of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors in discrete compartments in nuclei of rat hippocampus neurons.
The glucocorticoid receptor and the mineralocorticoid receptor are hormone-dependent transcription factors. They regulate the excitability of rat hippocampus CA1 neurons in a coordinated fashion. We studied the spatial distribution of these transcription factors in nuclei of CA1 neurons by dual labeling immunocytochemistry and confocal microscopy, combined with novel image restoration and image...
متن کاملPro-dynorphin peptides are found in the same neurons throughout rat brain: immunocytochemical study.
It is known that the opioid peptide dynorphin A has a broad distribution throughout the neuraxis. Recent biochemical studies have extended the sequence of dynorphin A by 15 amino acids to include another [Leu]enkephalin-containing peptide known as dynorphin B. These sequence data have been validated by the elucidation of the structure of the hypothalamic mRNA coding for alpha- and beta-neo-endo...
متن کاملImpaired Memory and Evidence of Histopathology in CA1 Pyramidal Neurons through Injection of Aβ1-42 Peptides into the Frontal Cortices of Rat
Introduction: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders, which has much benefited from animal models to find the basics of its pathophysiology. In our previous work (Haghani, Shabani, Javan, Motamedi, & Janahmadi, 2012), a non-transgenic rat model of AD was used in electrophysiological studies. However, we did not investigate the histological aspects in the ...
