متن کاملRegulation of insulin-receptor mRNA levels by glucocorticoids.
We found with IM-9 human cultured lymphocytes, that the glucocorticoid dexamethasone increased insulin-receptor mRNA levels. This increase correlated in a time- and dose-dependent manner with the increase in the biosynthesis of the insulin-receptor precursor. In addition, in AR42J cultured rat pancreatic acinar cells, dexamethasone increased insulin-receptor mRNA levels. These studies suggest, ...
متن کاملMorphine-induced place preference affects mRNA expression of G protein a subunits in rat brain
Background: The conditioned place preference (CPP) test is an animal model serving to assess addictive potential of drugs in which environmental cues become associated with the subjective effects of drugs of abuse. Morphine, a known addictive drug, is an agonist of opioid receptors that couple to the G(i/o) family of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (GP). We have recently found that chronic ...

متن کاملDifferential Localization of G Protein βγ Subunits
G protein βγ subunits play essential roles in regulating cellular signaling cascades, yet little is known about their distribution in tissues or their subcellular localization. While previous studies have suggested specific isoforms may exhibit a wide range of distributions throughout the central nervous system, a thorough investigation of the expression patterns of both Gβ and Gγ isoforms with...
