Food deprivation differentially modulates orexin receptor expression and signaling in rat hypothalamus and adrenal cortex.
Although starvation-induced biochemical and metabolic changes are perceived by the hypothalamus, the adrenal gland plays a key role in the integration of metabolic activity and energy balance, implicating feeding as a major synchronizer of rhythms in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Given that orexins are involved in regulating food intake and activating the HPA axis, we hypothesi...
متن کاملAdrenocorticotropin induces heme oxygenase-1 expression in adrenal cells.
Heme oxygenase (HO) catalyzes the first and rate-controlling step of heme catabolism into biliverdin, iron and carbon monoxide. Three isoforms of HO have been identified so far: the inducible HO-1 and the constitutive HO-2 and HO-3. Both HO-1 and HO-2 were expressed in zona fasciculata (ZF) adrenal cells and in a mouse adrenocortical cell line (Y1). HO-1 but not HO-2 expression was upregulated ...
متن کاملMicroRNA-24 is a novel regulator of aldosterone and cortisol production in the human adrenal cortex.
Dysregulation of aldosterone or cortisol production can predispose to hypertension, as seen in aldosterone-producing adenoma, a form of primary aldosteronism. We investigated the role of microRNA (miRNA) in their production, with particular emphasis on the CYP11B1 (11β-hydroxylase) and CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase) genes, which produce the enzymes responsible for the final stages of cortisol a...
متن کامل24-Hour periodicity of adrenal cortex.
The diurnal rhythm in the urinary excretion of 17-ketosteroids and neutral reducing lipids has been reported by Pincus. 1) On the other hand the diurnal variation of circulating eosinophils in normal subjects has been studied by Rud,2) Bonner3) and others.4) 5) The characteristic feature in diurnal rhythm of urinary steroids is an increase in the morning especially after awakening. Meanwhile th...
متن کاملcritical period effects in foreign language learning:the influence of maturational state on the acquisition of reading,writing, and grammar in english as a foreign language
since the 1960s the age effects on learning both first and second language have been explored by many linguists and applied linguists (e.g lennerberg, 1967; schachter, 1996; long, 1990) and the existence of critical period for language acquisition was found to be a common ground of all these studies. in spite of some common findings, some issues about the impacts of age on acquiring a second or...
