Simulation of biogenic amine metabolism in the brain.
The metabolism of a number of biogenic amines has been simulated by using data obtained from studies of the individual enzymes from pig brain. It is shown that beta-hydroxylated amines such as noradrenaline and octopamine are metabolized primarily to the alcoholic metabolite whereas amines lacking this group [e.g. dopamine (3,4-dihydroxyphenethylamine) and 5-hydroxytryptamine] are metabolized a...
متن کاملDrugs, biogenic amine targets and the developing brain.
Defects in the development of the brain have a profound impact on mature brain functions and underlying psychopathology. Classical neurotransmitters and neuromodulators, such as dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine, acetylcholine, glutamate and GABA, have pleiotropic effects during brain development. In other words, these molecules produce multiple diverse effects to serve as regulators of disti...
متن کاملProdynorphin peptide immunocytochemistry in rhesus monkey brain.
The present study describes the immunocytochemical distribution of peptides derived from the prodynorphin precursor in the brain of the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta). Animals were treated with colchicine (intracerebroventricularly) prior to perfusion to enhance the observation of perikaryal immunoreactivity. Using antisera generated against dynorphin A(1-17), dynorphin B(1-13), and prodynorphi...
متن کاملProopiomelanocortin peptide immunocytochemistry in rhesus monkey brain.
The immunocytochemical distribution of proopiomelanocortin (POMC) peptides (beta-endorphin, ACTH, alpha-MSH, 16K fragment) was studied in the brain of the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta). Some animals were administered colchicine intracerebroventricularly prior to sacrifice to enhance the visualization of perikaryal immunoreactivity. Immunoreactive perikarya are localized to hypothalamic infundi...
متن کاملBiogenic amine neurotransmitters in C. elegans.
Four biogenic amines: octopamine, tyramine, dopamine and serotonin act in C. elegans to modulate behavior in response to changing environmental cues. These neurotransmitters act at both neurons and muscles to affect egg laying, pharyngeal pumping, locomotion and learning. A variety of experimental approaches including genetic, imaging, biochemical and pharmacological analyses have been used to ...
