Polypeptide hormones and growth factors have long been known to internalize into peripheral target cells as a result of their interaction with cell surface receptors. Studies in culture have suggested that certain neuropeptides might undergo a similar type of translocation in neurons. To investigate this possibility in adult mammalian brain, we have examined by confocal laser microscopy the eve...
Anatomical and physiological experiments were conducted to characterize the interactions between the lateral hypothalamus (LH) and the periaqueductal gray (PAG) and to determine the role of neurotensin in their interaction. Anatomical studies using injection of Phaseolus vulgaris leucoagglutinin into the LH showed an extensive projection to the ventromedial and the ventrolateral PAG and a less ...
Receptors for endogenous regulatory peptides, like the neuropeptide neurotensin, are overexpressed in several human cancers and can be targets for peptide-mediated tumor-selective therapy. Peptides, however, have the main drawback of an extremely short half-life in vivo. We showed that neurotensin and other endogenous peptides, when synthesized as dendrimers, retain biological activity and beco...
Dopaminergic neurons of the ventral tegmental area are important components of brain pathways related to addiction. Prolonged exposure of these neurons to moderate concentrations of dopamine (DA) decreases their sensitivity to inhibition by DA, a process called DA-inhibition reversal (DIR). DIR is mediated by phospholipase C and conventional subtype of protein kinase C (cPKC) through concurrent...
Interactions between the classical monoamine neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) and the peptide neurotransmitter neurotensin (NT) in the central nervous system (CNS) have now been investigated for over two decades. Interest in this topic has been sustained, primarily because of the potential clinical relevance of these interactions to schizophrenia and drug abuse. In the past five years, important ...
A tridecapeptide having the amino acid sequence, less than Glu-Leu-Tyr-Glu-Asn-Pro-Arg-Arg-Pro-Tyr-Iie-Leu-OH, (The nomenclature and symbols follow the suggestions of the IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (1972) J. Biol. Chem. 247, 977).) has been synthesized by the Merrifield solid-phase procedure. The synthetic scheme chosen involved synthesis of the peptide in the (Gln) form a...
