Dopamine receptor turnover rates in rat striatum are age-dependent.
The time course of recovery of [3H]spiperone binding in the rat striatum after a single injection of the irreversible antagonist N-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ) shows that a slower rate of regeneration/turnover of D-2 dopamine receptors occurs in mid-life-mature versus young male rats. This slower receptor recovery reflects relatively slower rates of both receptor synthesi...
متن کاملEffect of 3-acetylpyridine on the development of rat brain.
3-Acetylpyridine, an antagonistic agent of nicotinic acid, was given to suckling rats from 6 days of age. Rats were killed at 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27 and 30 days of age respectively, and their brains were analyzed for several biochemical parameters of brain growth and myelination for comparison with those of pair-fed and ad libitum control rats. Results of DNA, RNA and protein content meas...
متن کاملDevelopment of age-dependent glomerular lesions in galectin-3/AGE-receptor-3 knockout mice.
Aging is characterized by renal functional and structural abnormalities resembling those observed in diabetes. These changes have been related to the progressive accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and cumulative oxidative stress occurring in both conditions. We previously reported that galectin-3 ablation is associated with increased susceptibility to diabetes- and AGE-induc...
متن کاملProstaglandin A(1) protects striatal neurons against excitotoxic injury in rat striatum.
Prostaglandin A(1) (PGA1) reportedly inhibits NF-kappaB activation and induces expression of heat shock proteins. Since both these effects could be neuroprotective, the therapeutic potential of PGA1 in neurodegenerative disorders, where excitotoxicity may contribute to pathogenesis, was evaluated in rat striatal neurons exposed to the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor agonist quinolinic acid...
متن کاملChronic haloperidol treatment increased calcium-dependent phosphorylation in rat striatum.
In previous studies, we observed that when rats were chronically treated wih haloperidol, there was a significant increase of calmodulin activity in their striatal membranes. Calmodulin is known to modulate calcium-dependent protein phosphorylation in neural membranes. In the present study, we found that the total 32P-incorporation in the striatal proteins from chronic haloperidol-treated rats ...
