Plasminogen Activators of the Enzyme Characterization and Pituitary Gland: Hormonal Modulation
We studied plasminogen activator (PA) of the rat pituitary gland in organ and cell monolayer culture. Both anterior and intermediate lobes contain, synthesize and secrete a mixture consisting of the two known types of PA: urokinase and so-called tissue PA. Both enzymes were formed essentially by all PA secreting cells, and PA was identified specifically in mammotrophs, corticotrophs, and lutein...

متن کاملHormonal influences on photoreceptor damage: the pituitary gland and ovaries.
To determine whether the absence of pituitary or ovarian hormones would influence retinal degeneration, female albino rats were either hypophysectomized (HYPEX) or ovariectomized (OVEX) before pubery. Later, they were exposed to continuous light for periods up to 45 days. Retinas evaluated by light microscopic measurements showed damage to the outer nuclear layer (ONL) and photoreceptor layer i...
متن کاملBinding of plasminogen activators to fibrin: characterization and pharmacological consequences.
The fibrinolytic pathway maintains vascular patency by the proteolytic degradation of fibrin, the end-product of coagulation. Formation of a fibrin mesh during haemostasis is part of the physiological response to vascular injury, whereas thrombosis is a pathological obstruction of blood flow, but the biochemical and cellular participants are believed to be similar. Physiological fibrinolysis is...
متن کاملHormonal Modulation of the Rat Mammary Gland y-Glutamyltranspeptidase
y-Glutamyltranspeptidase, Prolactin, Estradiol (Rat Mammary Gland) 1. The in vivo effect of estradiol and domperidone (a hypophysis stimulator of prolactin secre tion) in immature ovariectom ized-adrenalectom ized and hypophysectomized rat mammary gland was studied. 2. y-Glutamyltranspeptidase activity was used to evaluate the role of estradiol in the specific response of the gland to prolacti...
