Continuous stimulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors by GnRH agonist decreases pituitary GnRH receptor messenger ribonucleic acid concentration in immature female rats.
Although it is well recognized that continuous administration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) induces pituitary desensitization, the precise molecular mechanism of this phenomenon is still unclear. To test the hypothesis that pituitary gonadotroph desensitization is mediated by a change in GnRH receptor (GnRH-R) gene expression, the GnRH-R mRNA concentration was analyzed in im...
متن کاملTumor-specific decreased expression of calcium sensing receptor messenger ribonucleic acid in sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism.
Secretion of PTH is regulated by extracellular calcium via calcium receptors (CaR) on the parathyroid cell surface. Recent studies have shown a decreased expression of CaR messenger RNA (mRNA) and CaR protein in pathological parathyroids. We studied the expression of CaR mRNA in pairs of adenoma and adenoma-associated normal gland from the same patients (n = 17) and in biopsies of normal parath...
متن کاملEstrogen regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor messenger ribonucleic acid.
Previous studies have demonstrated that 17 beta-estradiol (E2) causes a 3-fold increase in epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors in uterine membranes. We now report that the increase in uterine EGF receptor levels is due to an increase in the steady-state levels of EGF receptor mRNA. After a single E2 injection, EGF receptor mRNA levels, as determined by RNA blots, increase 3- to 4-fold betwe...
متن کاملHeterogeneous dopamine D2 receptor subtype messenger ribonucleic acid expression in clinically nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas.
Little is known about differences in the expression, localization, and function of the two dopamine D2 receptor subtypes, D2short and D2long (D2s and D2l), in either normal or adenomatous pituitary. We investigated the messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of the D2 receptor (D2R) subtypes in clinically nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas by in situ hybridization using subtype-specific oligonucleotides...
متن کاملCharacterization of estrogen receptor-beta (ERbeta) messenger ribonucleic acid and protein expression in rat granulosa cells.
We have examined estrogen-responsiveness of ovarian granulosa cells by focusing on estrogen receptor (ER) expression. Estrogen responsiveness was determined by examining the effect of 17beta-estradiol (1-10 nM) on luciferase reporter activity in rat granulosa cells transfected with an ERE-luciferase construct. The results demonstrate an estrogen-induced (approximately 3-fold) increase in lucife...
