Neurosecretion of human hypothalamic immunoreactive beta-endorphin: in vitro regulation by dopamine.

Abstract:

:An in vitro perifusion system was used to investigate immunoreactive beta-endorphin (beta-END-I) release from adult human hypothalami in response to dopamine (DA) and the DA receptor antagonist haloperidol (HAL). Administration of a 1 microM pulse of DA consistently elicited a mean (+/- SE) 88 +/- 9% increase (p less than 0.05, n = 5) in beta-END-I release, whereas 1 microM HAL had no effect. Administration of 1 microM DA during three perifusions in which 1 microM HAL was added to the medium failed to alter basal beta-END-I release. In contrast, DA did evoke an acute 230 +/- 31% increase (p less than 0.05) in beta-END-I release during three matching perifusions with medium containing the alpha-adrenergic antagonist phentolamine. These studies demonstrate that DA can stimulate in vitro release of beta-END-I from the adult human hypothalamus by a DA receptor mediated mechanism.

  • Evidence for a leptin-neuropeptide Y axis for the regulation of growth hormone secretion in the rat.

    abstract::The obese gene (OB) product, leptin, has been shown to exert control on metabolic processes such as food intake and body weight homeostasis, possibly through a neuropeptide Y (NPY) neurotransmission. More recently, leptin has been shown to control several neuroendocrine axes, modulating pituitary hormone secretions in...
