Anti-stress effects of ginseng via down-regulation of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH) gene expression in immobilization-stressed rats and PC12 cells
Catecholamines are among the first molecules that displayed a kind of response to prolonged or repeated stress. It is well established that long-term stress leads to the induction of catecholamine biosynthetic enzymes such as tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH) in adrenal medulla. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of ginseng on TH and DBH mRNA expre...
متن کاملGenetic diversity of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH) genes in cattle breeds
DNA from four cattle breeds was used to re-sequence all of the exons and 56% of the introns of the bovine tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) gene and 97% and 13% of the bovine dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH) coding and non-coding sequences, respectively. Two novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and a microsatellite motif were found in the TH sequences. The DBH sequences contained 62 nucleotide chan...
متن کاملModulatory effect of ginseng total saponin on dopamine release and tyrosine hydroxylase gene expression induced by nicotine in the rat.
Several studies have demonstrated that behavioral activation induced by psychostimulants is prevented by ginseng total saponin (GTS), which has been known to act on the central dopaminergic system. In an attempt to investigate whether the effect of GTS is through its inhibitory action on the elevated dopaminergic transmission, we examined the effect of GTS on nicotine-induced dopamine (DA) rele...
متن کاملneuroprotective effect of voluntary exercise on dopamine and tyrosine hydroxylase in the striatum of parkinsonian rats
introduiction: this study aimed to investigate the protective effects of 12-week voluntary exercise using a running wheel on the striatum dopaminergic neurons against 6-hydroxydopamine lesions in rats. materials and method: twenty five rats were divided into three groups including healthy, parkinson and training-parkinson. the training groups were housed in individual cages geared with running...
متن کاملMicrogravity decreases tyrosine hydroxylase expression in rat adrenals.
During spaceflight, alterations in blood and urinary catecholamine (CA) levels have been observed, yet the cellular/molecular mechanisms leading to these changes are not known. We used molecular, immunological, and biochemical approaches to analyze in situ the expression of catecholamine enzymes in adrenal medullary chromaffin cells of rats flown for 6 days on board Space Shuttle mission STS-54...
