چکیده

Effect of different monoamines and estradiol were studied on cyclic AMP (CAMP) accumulation in hypothalami from 21 day old female rats. Incubation for 5 min with 10D4r/r epinephrine, norepinephrine or dopamine resulted in an increase in c!AMP accumulation in the hypothals$%s. Incubation of hypothalamic tissue with estradiol (4 x 10 M to 2 x 10 -5M) also resulted in an increase in cyclic AMP levels. The increase caused by estradiol was observed only after 50 min of incubation period. The estradiol induced increase in cyclic AMP accumulation was abolished by both 01 and S blockers. These results suggest that the estradiol-induced increase in cyclic AMP may be mediated by a prior increase in catecholamines in the hypothalamic tissue.

Cyclic AMP-generating systems: regional differences in activation by adrenergic receptors in rat brain.

Catecholamine, histamine, and adenosine-mediated accumulations of radioactive cyclic AMP were assessed in adenine-labeled slices from eight rat brain regions. 2-Fluoronorepinephrine, a selective beta-adrenergic agonist, elicited an an accumulation of cyclic AMP in cerebral cortex, cerebellum, hippocampus, striatum, superior colliculi, thalamus, hypothalamus, and medulla-pons. In cerebral cortex...

Hormonal activation of glycogen phosphorylase in hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats.

The ability of catecholamines and glucagon to stimulate glycogen phosphorylase activity was examined in hepatocytes isolated from euthyroid and hypothyroid fed female rats. Hypothyroidism did not alter the ability of either phenylephrine or epinephrine to activate glycogen phosphorylase. Activation of glycogen phosphorylase in response to a maximal concentration of isoproterenol, however, was 1...

Stimulatory effect of gonadotropins on the synthesis of adenosine 3': 5'-cyclic monophosphate and progesterone by suspensions of rat ovarian interstitial cells.

A cell suspension was prepared from immature rat ovaries by treatment with trypsin and collagenase. The isolated cells were capable of converting [8-14-C]adenine to cyclic [-14-C]AMP and the rate of this conversion was stimulated in vitro by luteinizing hormone and human chorionic gonadotropine, but not by prolactin, norepinephrine, dopamine or albumin. The accumulation of progesterone was al...

Lack of correlation between catecholamine effects on cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate and gluconeogenesis in isolated rat liver cells.

Isolated liver cells from fasted female rats synthesized glucose in the presence of alanine, lactate, and pyruvate. Epinephrine, norepinephrine, and phenylephrine stimulated gluconeogenesis whereas isoproterenol and salbutamol had no effect on gluconeogenesis from lactate. Dand L-Propranolol had no effect on epinephrine-stimulated gluconeogenesis but blocked cyclic adenosine 3’:5’-monophosphate...
