Assessment of TRH as a potential MSH release stimulating factor in Xenopus laevis.
This study considers the possible involvement of the tripeptide TRH (thyrotropin releasing hormone) in the physiological regulation of melanophore stimulating hormone (MSH) secretion from the pars intermedia of the toad, Xenopus laevis. TRH was shown to stimulate release of MSH from superfused neurointermediate lobes obtained from white-background adapted animals, but had no effect on secretion...
متن کاملRegulation of melanotropin release from the pars intermedia of the amphibian Xenopus laevis: evaluation of the involvement of serotonergic, cholinergic, or adrenergic receptor mechanisms.
Melanophore-stimulating hormone (MSH) release from the pars intermedia of the pituitary gland is probably regulated by multiple factors of hypothalamic origin. We have examined a number of potential regulatory factors for their effects on MSH release from the amphibian Xenopus laevis. Serotonin and acetylcholine have no effect on MSH release. Both adrenaline and noradrenaline inhibit release of...
متن کاملGABA and dopamine act directly on melanotropes of Xenopus to inhibit MSH secretion.
The release of melanophore stimulating hormone (MSH) from the pars intermedia of the amphibian Xenopus laevis is regulated by multiple factors of hypothalamic origin. The aim of this study was to determine if potential secretagogues function through a direct action on the melanotrope cell. For this purpose an in vitro superfusion system containing isolated melanotropes (cell suspension) was uti...
متن کاملBiosynthesis, processing, and control of release of melanotropic peptides in the neurointermediate lobe of Xenopus laevis
The neurointermediate lobes of dark-adapted toads Xenopus laevis were incubated for 30 min in [3H]arginine and then "chased" for various time periods. By use of this pulse-chase paradigm there were detected 10 trichloroacetic acid (TCA)-precipitable peptides separated on acid-urea polyacrylamide gels and one TCA-soluble peptide separated by high-voltage electrophoresis (pH 4.9) with melanotropi...

Abstract The S362A mutation block ROMK2 (Kir1.1b) endocytosis in Xenopus laevis oocyte membrane . Saeed Hajihashemi1 , 1-Assistant professor, PhD in Physiology, Department of Physiology, School of Medical science, Arak University of Medical Sciences. Introduction: ROMK channel is localized on the apical membrane of the nephron. Recent studies suggest that endocytosis of ROMK chan...
