Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate inhibition of catecholamine secretion from bovine adrenal chromaffin cells.

Abstract:

:Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) dose-dependently inhibited [3H]norepinephrine (NE) secretion and the corresponding [Ca2+]i rise induced by the nicotinic receptor agonist 1,1-dimethyl-4-phenylpoperazimium (DMPP) in bovine chromaffin cells. DHEAS at 10 microM, the physiological concentration in human serum, significantly inhibited both the release of [3H]NE and the rise of [Ca2+]i induced by DMPP in chromaffin cells. DHEAS also inhibited the [3H]NE release induced by the Na+ channel activator veratridine. However, DHEAS did not affect either the [3H]NE release, or the corresponding [Ca2+]i rise induced by high K+. Moreover, DHEAS suppressed the [Na+]i rise induced by either DMPP or high K+ as monitored by the fluorescence 340/380 ratio of SBFI loaded chromaffin cells. Our results suggest that the inhibitory effects of DHEAS on secretion mainly occur at nicotinic receptors as well as at the voltage-dependent Na+ channels.

  • Continuous exposure to dim illumination uncouples temporal patterns of sleep, body temperature, locomotion and drinking behavior in the rat.

Therefore, we made simultaneous recordings of non-rapid-eye-movement-sleep (NREMS), rapid-eye-movement...
