بررسی ریتم شبانه آنزیم ان - استیل ترانسفراز در غده پینه آل موش صحرائی

Living organisms have multiple biological rhythms. Some of these rhythms are endogenous and some are under the influence of light and dati cydes during 24-hours. Nowadays periodic changes in melatonin secretion from pineal gland and changes in N-acetyl transferase (NAT) activity which influence the melatonin secretion rate has been acknowledged as a basic rhythm. In this study NAT activity in p...

Melatonin metabolism: neural regulation of pineal serotonin: acetyl coenzyme A N-acetyltransferase activity.

There is a diurnal rhythm in the activity of serotonin N-acetyltransferase in the rat pineal gland. In the normal rat, the nocturnal enzyme activities are 15-to 30-fold greater than are daytime activities. This rhythm is abolished by decentralization or removal of the superior cervical ganglia, procedures that interrupt the only source of central neural input to the pineal gland. This effect of...

Rapid recovery of function after partial denervation of the rat pineal gland suggests a novel mechanism for neural plasticity.

The activity of serotonin N-acetyltransferase (NATase) in the rat pineal gland exhibits a large (approximately 100-fold) circadian variation, with peak activity occurring in the dark part of the light/dark cycle. Surgical removal of both superior cervical ganglia abolishes this rhythm in enzyme activity. Unilateral ganglionectomy caused a 75% decrease in NATase activity during the dark period i...

Sympathetic reinnervation of the pineal gland after postganglionic nerve lesion does not restore normal pineal function.

The activity of the enzyme serotonin N-acetyltransferase (NAT) in the rat pineal gland exhibits a large circadian rhythm, with peak activity occurring at night. This rhythm is dependent on stimulation of the pineal gland by neurons whose cell bodies are in the superior cervical ganglia and whose axons reach the gland via the internal carotid nerves (ICNs). Two days after both ICN were cut, crus...

Diurnal variation of the adenylyl cyclase type 1 in the rat pineal gland.

Nocturnal melatonin production in the pineal gland is under the control of norepinephrine released from superior cervical ganglia afferents in a rhythmic manner, and of cyclic AMP. Cyclic AMP increases the expression of serotonin N-acetyltransferase and of inducible cAMP early repressor that undergo circadian oscillations crucial for the maintenance and regulation of the biological clock. In th...
