Extrarenal disposal of potassium load is impaired in chronic renal failure (CRF). This has been attributed to excess PTH since extrarenal disposition of potassium is normal in CRF-PTX animals. Insulin augments potassium entry into cells and hyperkalemia stimulates insulin secretion. Since glucose-induced insulin secretion is impaired in CRF and normal in CRF-PTX, it is possible that K(+)-induce...
BACKGROUND Chronic renal failure (CRF) is associated with cardiac dysfunction and increased aortic stiffness. The mechanisms involved are not clearly understood. We examined changes over time in cardiac and aortic function in a murine CRF model. METHODS AND RESULTS Eight-week-old mice were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 groups: wild-type non-CRF, wild-type CRF, apolipoprotein E knockout non-CRF,...
UNLABELLED Intermittent social defeat stress escalates later cocaine self-administration. Reward and stress both activate ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine neurons, increasing downstream extracellular dopamine concentration in the medial prefrontal cortex and nucleus accumbens. The stress neuropeptide corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) and its receptors (CRF-R1, CRF-R2) are located in the...
We demonstrate the presence and hair cycle-dependent expression of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and CRF receptors (CRF-R) in C57BL/6 mouse skin. To correlate this with a physiological, developmentally controlled tissue remodeling process, we have analyzed CRF and CRF-R expression during defined stages of the murine hair cycle with its rhythmic changes between growth (anagen), regression...
The influence of CRF on testosterone production in primary mouse Leydig cell cultures was studied, and the type of CRF receptor (CRF-R) involved in this activity was determined. CRF directly stimulated testosterone production in mouse Leydig cells, but did not influence the maximum human (h)CG-induced testosterone production. The effect was time- and dose-dependent, saturable with an EC50 of 2....
Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is a 41-amino acid neuropeptide that is involved in stress-related physiology and behavior, including control of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Members of the CRF family of neuropeptides, including urocortin 1 (UCN 1), UCN 2, and UCN 3, bind to the G protein-coupled receptors, CRF type 1 (CRF1) and CRF2 receptors. In addition, CRF binding pro...
Urocortin (Ucn) is a newly identified mammalian member of the CRF family of peptides. Ucn activates CRF receptors (both CRF-R1 and CRF-R2) with greater potency than CRF itself, suggesting that Ucn may play an endogenous role in eliciting (at least some) CRF receptor-mediated events. Because the most characterized physiological function of CRF receptors is the activation of pituitary ACTH secret...
Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is released in response to various stressors and regulates adrenocorticotropin secretion and glucocorticoid production. In addition to its endocrine functions, CRF acts as a neuromodulator in extra-hypothalamic systems and has been shown to play a role in behavioral responses to stress. CRF overproduction has been implicated in affective disorders such as de...
سابقه و هدف: اختلالات سیستم ایمنی یکی از مشکلات اساسی بیماران دیالیزی است وعدم توازن پاسخهایTh1 و Th2 نقش به سزایی در پیدایش این اختلالات دارد. این سلولها علاوه بر تولید سیتوکاینهای خاص، برخی از مولکولهای کمک محرک نظیر CD26 و CD30 را بطور ترجیحی بیان می نمایند. این مطالعه با هدف تعیین سطح سرمی این مولکولها در بیماران با نارسایی مزمن کلیه (CRF) و بیماران تحت دیالیز انجام گردید. مواد و روشها:...
The corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) family is involved in modulating gastrointestinal motility, sensitivity and inflammation. CRF signalling exerts an important role in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), predominantly by activating CRF receptors. The aim of the present study was to investigate the function of CRF receptor 1 (CRF‑R1) in the development of mucosal inflammation induced by dext...
