Rat Cerebellar Grafts Have 125I-Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide Binding Sites
Neuropeptides and their receptors may play a role in the growth and/or differentiation of fetal brain transplants. Previously, we found that gas-trin releasing peptide (GRP) receptors develop on fetal cortex grafts transplanted into the adult rat cortex, spinal cord or 4th ventricle/1,2/. Here we investigated the presence of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) receptors in rat fetal brain trans...
متن کاملCharacterization and segmental distribution of 125I-Bolton-Hunter-labeled substance P binding sites in rat spinal cord.
Substance P (SP) is widely distributed in the spinal cord and has been implicated as a neurotransmitter in several spinal cord neuronal systems. To investigate SP receptors in the spinal cord, 125I-Bolton-Hunter-SP (125I-BH-SP) was used to identify and characterize spinal cord binding sites for the peptide. The binding of 125I-BH-SP had the following characteristics: high affinity; time, temper...
متن کاملCharacterization and localization of Ac-SDKP receptor binding sites using 125I-labeled Hpp-Aca-SDKP in rat cardiac fibroblasts.
We have shown that the tetrapeptide N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (Ac-SDKP) inhibited endothelin-1 (ET-1)-induced cell proliferation and collagen synthesis in cultured rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) and reduced left ventricle collagen deposition in rats with aldosterone (salt)- and ANG II-induced hypertension. However, it is not known whether these effects are mediated by receptor bindin...
متن کاملCharacterization of 2-[125I]iodomelatonin binding sites in Syrian hamster peripheral organs.
The neurohormone melatonin is a key agent in synchronizing the circadian rhythms. At least three types of binding sites have been described for melatonin: the G-coupled, seven-transmembrane domain receptors mt1 and MT2 and a putative binding site called MT3. The latter has been described in hamster brain membranes, and its binding capacity is optimum at 4 degrees C. We further characterized thi...
متن کاملEnergy production of rat soleus muscle.
GIBBS, C. L., AND W. R. GIBSON. Energy production of t-at soleus muscle. Am. J. Physiol. 223(4): 864-871. 1972.-A thermopile was used to record the heat production of rat soleus muscles, weighing between 16 and 96 mg, at 27 C. The muscles were subjected to isotonic and isometric tetani, 2 set in duration, and the stimulus frequency was 30 Hz. As well as recording initial energy production, reco...
