Progestin receptor-containing cells in guinea pig hypothalamus: Afferent connections, morphological characteristics, and neurotransmitter content.

Molecular and cellular neurosciences

Brown TJ, Maclusky NJ, Leranth C, Shanabrough M, Naftolin F.
PMID: 19912755
Mol Cell Neurosci. 1990 Aug;1(1):58-77. doi: 10.1016/1044-7431(90)90042-3.

Progestin receptor-containing cells in the guinea pig hypothalamus were examined by immunocytochemical methods to characterize their morphological properties, afferent connections, and neurotransmitter content. Through the use of a monoclonal mouse antibody raised against the rabbit uterine progestin receptor, progrestin...

Microarray analysis of differentially expressed genes in the brains of tubby mice.

The Korean journal of physiology & pharmacology : official journal of the Korean Physiological Society and the Korean Society of Pharmacology

Lee JH, Kim CH, Kim DG, Ahn YS.

Korean J Physiol Pharmacol. 2009 Apr;13(2):91-7. doi: 10.4196/kjpp.2009.13.2.91. Epub 2009 Apr 30.

The tubby mouse is characterized by progressive retinal and cochlear degeneration and late-onset obesity. These phenotypes are caused by a loss-of-function mutation in the tub gene and are shared with several human syndromes, suggesting the importance of tubby protein...

A search for endogenous modulators of the GABA receptor in different regions of the rat CNS.

Neurochem Int. 1983;5(3):325-31. doi: 10.1016/0197-0186(83)90035-9.

The possible existence of endogenous substances other than ?-aminobutyric acid (GABA), that can also bind to rat brain GABA receptors, has been investigated in synaptic membranes derived from whole rat brain, or from cerebral cortex; as well as in...

Noradrenaline, dopamine and serotonin release in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of the rat in response to intravenous cholecystokinin injections.

Journal of neuroendocrinology

Kendrick K, Leng G, Higuchi T.
PMID: 19215514
J Neuroendocrinol. 1991 Apr 01;3(2):139-44. doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2826.1991.tb00255.x.

Abstract Microdialysis sampling was used to measure noradrenaline, dopamine and serotonin release in the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of urethane-anaesthetized rats following intravenous injection of 20mug/kg cholecystokinin. This dose of cholecystokinin stimulates oxytocin release from the posterior pituitary, while...

Cholecystokinin activates C-fos expression in hypothalamic oxytocin and corticotropin-releasing hormone neurons.

Journal of neuroendocrinology

Verbalis JG, Stricker EM, Robinson AG, Hoffman GE.
PMID: 19215523
J Neuroendocrinol. 1991 Apr 01;3(2):205-13. doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2826.1991.tb00264.x.

Abstract The effect of systemically-administered Cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK) on hypothalamic oxytocin, vasopressin, and corticotropin-releasing hormone neurons was studied by analysis of c-fos antigen expression in immunocytochemically-characterized neurons in the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei. CCK (100mug/kg intraperitoneally) caused a marked...

J Neurogastroenterol Motil. 2010 Jan;16(1):71-6. doi: 10.5056/jnm.2010.16.1.71. Epub 2010 Jan 31.

INTRODUCTION: Cholecystokinin (CCK) belongs to a group of endogenous molecules known as brain-gut neuropeptides and functions as a neuropeptide as well as a gut hormone. It remains unclear whether genetic variation of the CCK receptor plays a role in...

Degradation of cholecystokinin octapeptide by the neutral endopeptidase EC 3.4.24.11 and design of proteolysis-resistant analogues of the peptide.

Neurochemistry international

Najdovski T, de Pont JJ, Tesser GI, Penke B, Martinez J, Deschodt-Lanckman M.
PMID: 20501118
Neurochem Int. 1987;10(4):459-65. doi: 10.1016/0197-0186(87)90072-6.

Inactivation of cholecystokinin octapeptide in vitro involves a metalloendopeptidase (EC 3.4.24.11) also called enkephalinase that inactivated the peptide both by a sequential pathway of hydrolysis (removal of Phe-NH(2) followed by cleavage of Trp-Met-Asp) and by an endopeptidase action (production...

Influence of cholecystokinin on the synaptosomal dopamine uptake in the nucleus accumbens of rats.

Neurochemistry international

Hetey L, Döring E, Penke B.
PMID: 20501125
Neurochem Int. 1987;10(4):525-8. doi: 10.1016/0197-0186(87)90079-9.

The influence of the sulfated cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8S) on the synaptosomal high-affinity [(3)H]dopamine (DA) uptake was investigated in the medial and lateral part of nucleus accumbens in rats. CCK-8S induced a concentration-dependent biphasic inhibition of [(3)H]-DA uptake in both...

Opposite effects of sodium butyrate on CCK mRNA and CCK peptide levels in RIN cells.

PMID: 21153085
Endocrine. 1996 Dec;5(3):331-4. doi: 10.1007/BF02739067.

The effects of the differentiation-inducing agent sodium butyrate on cholecystokinin (CCK) expression was investigated in the pancreatic islet tumor cell line RIN 1056E, which contains high levels of CCK-like immunoreactivity (CCK-LI). Exposure to butyrate for 24 h dose-dependently inhibited...

Physiology of the sphincter of Oddi--the present and the future?--Part 1.

Saudi J Gastroenterol. 2000 Sep;6(3):129-46.

The mechanisms controlling the sphincter of Oddi (SO) have received considerable attention over the past two decades. Progress towards their elucidation has been slow, perhaps because of the sphincter's relative inaccessibility and the different responses of the human "resistor"...

Neurochem Int. 1989;14(4):467-9. doi: 10.1016/0197-0186(89)90037-5.

In the anterior nucleus accumbens of the rat, the high dose of apomorphine (5 mg/kg i.p.) increased and r-butyrolactone decreased cholecystokinin octapeptide-like immunoreactivity, but the low dose of apomorphine (0.02 mg/kg i.p.) did not induce any change. In contrast,...
