Effects of Low Level of Lead Exposure on Responsiveness of The Rat Isolated Heart to Adrenergics
Background: There are controversial reports about the exact mechanisms of lead-induced hypertension, but many factors such as alteration in the responsiveness of cardiovascular system to endogenous substances including catecholamines could be one of the mechanisms involved. In present study, the effect of exposure to 100 ppm lead acetate by drinking water (in the periods of 4, 8 and 12 weeks)...
متن کاملEffect of GRF and somatostatin on 7B2 secretion by rat GH1 cells.
A novel pituitary protein "7B2" was secreted by GH1 cells. The secretion of 7B2 was increased in the presence of human GRF in a dose-responsive manner. In contrast, a somatostatin analog, SMS 201-995, revealed the inhibitory effects on the basal- and GRF-induced secretion of 7B2 at the concentration of 10(-7) M. These findings suggest that 7B2 is a secretory protein of rat GH1 cells under certa...

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
15 صفحه اولHypothalamic growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF) regulates its own receptor gene expression in vivo in the rat pituitary.
peptide that specifically stimulates both synthesis and secretion of pituitary GH [1]. GRF is released into the hypophyseal-portal vessels under control by a variety of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides. After reaching the pituitary, GRF binds to its specific receptors [1] on somatotrophs and generates bursts of GH secretion episodically [2]. Earlier ligand-binding and functional studies in r...
متن کاملHuman growth hormone-releasing factor (hGRF)1-29-albumin bioconjugates activate the GRF receptor on the anterior pituitary in rats: identification of CJC-1295 as a long-lasting GRF analog.
In vivo bioconjugation to the free thiol on Cys34 of serum albumin by a strategically placed reactive group on a bioactive peptide is a useful tool to extend plasma half-life. Three maleimido derivates of human GH-releasing factor (hGRF)(1-29) were synthesized and bioconjugated to human serum albumin ex vivo. All three human serum albumin conjugates showed enhanced in vitro stability against di...
