Urocortin in the lateral septal area modulates feeding induced by orexin A in the lateral hypothalamus.

Wang C, Kotz CM.

The intermediate portion of the lateral septum (LSi) contains high levels of urocortin (UCN) peptide and type 2 corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) receptor (CRHR2) and has anatomic and functional connections with the lateral hypothalamus (LH). We tested the effect of UCN in the LSi on feeding. Injection of 10 or 30 pmol UCN into LSi significantly decreased feeding in food-deprived rats for 24 h without producing conditioned taste aversion (CTA). Pretreatment with a CRH receptor antagonist, alpha-helical CRH (alpha-hCRH), blocked the inhibitory effect of UCN on deprivation-induced feeding at 1 and 2 h postinjection. Furthermore, UCN in the LSi significantly decreased feeding induced by LH-injected orexin A at 2 and 4 h postinjection, and addition of alpha-hCRH blocked the inhibitory effect of UCN on orexin A-induced feeding. In conclusion, UCN significantly inhibits feeding induced by deprivation and LH-injected orexin A without producing a CTA, an effect that is mediated by CRHR2. These data define the LSi as an important site for UCN-induced anorexia and indicate that LSi UCN may influence orexin A feeding signals in the LH.

Role of corticotropin-releasing hormone in stressor-induced alterations of sleep in rat.

Chang FC, Opp MR.

Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) mediates responses to a variety of stressors. We subjected rats to a 1-h period of an acute stressor, physical restraint, and determined the impact on subsequent sleep-wake behavior. Restraint at the beginning of the light period, but not the dark period, increased waking and reduced rapid eye movement sleep without dramatically altering slow-wave sleep (SWS). Electroencephalogram (EEG) slow-wave activity during SWS and brain temperature were increased by this manipulation. Central administration of the CRH receptor antagonist astressin blocked the increase in waking after physical restraint, but not during the period of restraint itself. Blockade of CRH receptors with astressin attenuated the restraint-induced elevation of brain temperature, but not the increase of EEG slow-wave activity during subsequent SWS. Although corticosterone increased after restraint in naive animals, it was not altered by this manipulation in rats well habituated to handling and injection procedures. These results suggest that under these conditions central CRH, but not the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, is involved in the alterations in sleep-wake behavior and the modulation of brain temperature of rats exposed to physical restraint.

Characterization of pituitary IGF-I receptors: modulation of prolactin and growth hormone.

Fruchtman S, McVey DC, Borski RJ.

There have been no studies in any vertebrate that have localized insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I receptors in prolactin (PRL) cells or that have correlated pituitary binding to the potency of IGF-I in regulating both PRL and growth hormone (GH) secretion. We show that IGF-I binds with high affinity and specificity to the pituitary gland of hybrid striped bass (Morone saxatilis x M. chrysops). IGF-I and IGF-II were equipotent in inhibiting saturable (125)I-IGF-I binding, whereas insulin was ineffective. IGF-I binds with similar affinity to the rostral pars distalis (>95% PRL cells) as the whole pituitary gland and immunohistochemistry colocalizes IGF-I receptors and PRL in this same region. Des(1-3)IGF-I, a truncated analog of IGF-I that binds with high affinity to IGF-I receptors but weakly to IGF-I binding proteins (IGFBPs), showed a similar inhibition of saturable (125)I-IGF-I binding, but it was more potent than IGF-I in stimulating PRL and inhibiting GH release. These results are the first to localize IGF-I receptors to PRL cells, correlate IGF-I binding to its efficacy in regulating GH and PRL secretion, as well as demonstrate that IGFBPs may play a significant role in modulating the disparate actions of IGF-I on PRL and GH secretion.

Stimulation of the gastrin-cholecystokinin(B) receptor promotes branching morphogenesis in gastric AGS cells.

Physiological Laboratory, University of Liverpool, United Kingdom.

Epithelial organization is maintained by cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation. In the case of the gastric epithelium, at least some of these events are regulated by the hormone gastrin. In addition, gastric epithelial cells are organized into characteristic tubular structures (the gastric glands), but the cellular mechanisms regulating the organization of tubular structures (sometimes called branching morphogenesis) are uncertain. In the present study, we examined the role of the gastrin-cholecystokinin(B) receptor in promoting branching morphogenesis of gastric epithelial cells. When gastric cancer AGS-G(R) cells were cultured on plastic, gastrin and PMA stimulated cell adhesion, formation of lamellipodia, and extension of long processes in part by activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3 kinase. Branching morphogenesis was not observed in these circumstances. However, when cells were cultured on artificial basement membrane, the same stimuli increased the formation of organized multicellular arrays, exhibiting branching morphogenesis. These effects were reversed by inhibitors of PKC but not of PI-3 kinase. We conclude that, in the presence of basement membrane, activation of PKC by gastrin stimulates branching morphogenesis.

Regulation of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide gene transcription by TTF-1, a homeodomain-containing transcription factor.

Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) is an important hypophysiotrophic factor as well as a regulator for immune, reproductive, and neural tissues. We recently found that TTF-1, a homeodomain-containing transcription factor essential for the development of the fetal diencephalon, is postnatally expressed in the hypothalamic area and plays a transcription regulatory role for certain neurohormones. Based on the similarity of synthesis sites between PACAP and TTF-1 and, moreover, on the presence of conserved core TTF-1 binding motifs in the 5'-flanking region of the PACAP gene, we sought to uncover a regulatory role of TTF-1 in PACAP gene transcription. The TTF-1 homeodomain binds to six of the seven putative binding domains observed in the 5'-flanking region of the PACAP gene. In the C6 glioma cell-line, TTF-1 activates the PACAP promoter in a dose-dependent manner. This transactivation of PACAP by TTF-1 was totally removed when the core TTF-1 binding motif at -369 was deleted. RNase protection assays showed that TTF-1 and PACAP mRNAs have daily fluctuations in the rat hypothalamus. They both were at low levels during the day and high levels during the night. Intracerebroventricular administration of an antisense TTF-1 oligodeoxynucleotide significantly decreased the PACAP mRNA level as well as TTF-1 protein content in the rat hypothalamus, suggesting that TTF-1 also regulates PACAP transcription in vivo. Moreover, the TTF-1 promoter was inhibited by molecular oscillators of CLOCK and BMAL-1. Taken together, these data suggest that TTF-1 plays an important regulatory role in the gene transcription for PACAP, which may be important for the generation of a daily rhythm of hypothalamic PACAP gene expression.

Beautiful, dense hair is a dream for many people. Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which has not yet been understood. A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been developed. However, due to the diversity of the problems underlying hair loss, there is no single solution that can address all hair loss cases. Another problem is that most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.

Hair Million is an alternative solution to cope with hair loss problems. Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement especially for age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a large group of people who take it as suggested. Although personal experiences and anecdotal evidences indicate that it works, we still do not understand the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth. R & D costs dearly, and no one would afford to research complex herbal ingredients, which are often not patentable at all because they are made by mother nature.
