    Notes: Abstract— A simple, sensitive and specific method for assaying cyclic AMP in various tissues is reported. Cyclic AMP was isolated from contaminating nucleotides and was converted to ATP with a phosphodiesterase-myokinase-pyruvate kinase system. The ATP was determined enzymically in a liquid scintillation counter by the firefly luciferin-luciferase technique. This procedure was capable of detecting as little as 5 × 10−14 mol of cyclic AMP and could therefore be used for analyses on less than 1 mg of brain. The assay was reproducible and linear over a wide range of tissue concentrations.In the rat, the highest levels of cyclic AMP (2.7–4.2 pmol/mg wet wt. of tissue) were present in the pineal, heart, pituitary, thyroid, cerebellar cortex, kidney, adrenal, liver and pyloric region of the stomach; intermediate levels (1.5–2.7 pmol/mg wet wt. of tissue) were found in testis, skin, aorta, intestine, submaxillary gland, spleen, muscle and cerebral cortex, moderately low levels (1.0–1.5 pmol/mg wet wt. of tissue) were found in lung, trachea and greater curvature of the stomach; whereas low levels (0.15–0.60 pmol/mg wet wt. of tissue) were found in adipose tissue.

    Notes: Abstract— Unilateral sympathetic decentralization of the superior cervical ganglion of rats was performed 3 days prior to the experiments. A two-compartment kinetic model was proposed to describe the effect of decentralization on (1) the uptake of a nonphysiological amino acid from plasma to the submaxillary gland and (2) the incorporation of a physiological amino acid from precursor pool into protein. The calculations based on the model showed that the fractional rate constant for efflux of the nonphysiological amino acid, α-[3-14C] aminoisobutyric acid, was greater in the decentralized than in the normal gland. However, efflux rate was equal in the two glands because the extrapolated zero time value of the initial concentration was greater in the normal gland.The labelled physiological amino acid, [14C]leucine, was used in initial experiments to assess turnover rate of the gland proteins but it was rapidly metabolized to many other radioactive compounds. Therefore, arginine[14C]guanido was employed-arginine being the only labelled amino acid found after injection. Since the steady state content of submaxillary gland proteins was not changed but the fractional rate constant of conversion of free arginine into protein (kp) was greater in the decentralized gland (kp= 0-40 h_l) than in the normal (kp= 0-27 h−1), we can conclude that decentralization increases protein turnover rate; thus, assuming that arginine[14C]guanido is homogeneously distributed in the tissue pools of free arginine, the rate of protein turnover is greater in the sympathetically decentralized gland than in the normal.

    Notes: [Auszug] Young male Sprague-Dawley rats (Zivic Miller, Pittsburgh, 50-60 g) were injected intraperitoneally with 3-methylcholanthrene (20 mg/kg) in 0.25 ml. of sesame oil daily for 4 days. Control rats were given injections of sesame oil. Each group consisted of three rats, fed liberally with Purina chow. ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Chlorpromazine and haloperidol, neuroleptics which increase the turnover rate of DA in striatum6'7, presumably block DA receptor function8. Such an action has been credited as an explanation for the antagonism by chlorpromazine of certain behavioural effects induced by amphetamine9. It is pertinent ...

    Notes: Summary Exposure at 4°C for 4 h increases the activity of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and dopamine-β-hydroxylase in superior cervical ganglia of bilateral adrenal demedullated (three weeks before) rats, but not that of normal rats. One or two weeks after adrenal demedullation, TH and DBH activities failed to be increased after exposure to 4°C for 4 h. Pretreatment with a nicotinic receptor antagonist (mecamylamine 15 μmoles/kg i.p.) abolishes the induction of TH but several injections of this drug beginning either after termination of cold exposure or 24 h later fail to inhibit TH induction. Decentralization performed at the end of cold exposure, 17 or 24 h later abolishes TH and DBH induction elicited by cold.

    Notes: Summary We studied the relationship between changes of 3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) activity in adrenal medulla of rats exposed to cold stress. Exposure of rats to 4° C produced a ten-fold increase of the cAMP content of adrenal medulla in about 30 min. This increase persisted for about one hour; the levels of cAMP returned to control value within 120 min in spite of the continued exposure to 4° C. In rats with monolaterally denervated (splanchnicotomized) adrenal, the exposure to 4° C produced only insignificant changes of cAMP concentration. During the exposure to 4° C we also observed an increase (about two times) of catecholamine turnover rate as measured by 3H-dopamine efflux from adrenal glands. This increased efflux persisted for 6 h of exposure to cold suggesting that the efflux of 3H-dopamine can increase without a simultaneous increase of cAMP concentrations. Exposure of rats to 4° C for two hour also increases (about two times) the TH activity as measured 24 h later. Exposure of the animals to 4° C for a time period longer than two hour (4 or 24 h) failed to produce further increases of TH activity. These results support the concept that the increase of cAMP concentrations in adrenal medulla may play a central role in initiating the chain of biochemical events modulating the synthesis of TH.
