Journal ArticleDOI
Diazepam-binding inhibitor: a neuropeptide located in selected neuronal populations of rat brain.
TL;DR: An endogenous polypeptide of rat brain has been identified that is capable of displacing 1,4-benzodiazepines and the esters of the 3-carboxylic acid derivatives of beta-carbolines from their specific synaptic binding sites, and is termed diazepam-binding inhibitor (DBI).
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of ascorbate and ubiquinone supplementation on plasma and CSF total antioxidant capacity
Kimmo Lönnrot,Timo Metsä-Ketelä,G. Molnar,Jukka-Pekka Ahonen,Matti Latvala,Jukka Peltola,Timo PietilÄ,Hannu Alho +7 more
TL;DR: The facts that AA is the highest contributor to CSF TRAP and its effect on TRAP is concentration dependent could indicate that the peroxyl radical-trapping capacity of CSF is buffered by AA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circadian rhythm in c-fos-like immunoreactivity in the rat brain
TL;DR: The results suggest that the fos gene is involved in mediating physiological activation of specific neuron populations of intact rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fos-like immunoreactivity in the rat hypothalamic-pituitary axis after immobilization stress.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that immobilization stress induces Fos-LI both in the hypothalamus and in the pituitary, suggesting that Fos may be involved in regulating the synthesis of different mediators of stress response, such as CRF- and POMC-derived peptides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Up-regulation of peripheral benzodiazepine receptor system in hepatocellular carcinoma
I. Venturini,M.L. Zeneroli,Lorenzo Corsi,Rossella Avallone,Franco Farina,Hannu Alho,Claudia Baraldi,Carlo Ferrarese,N. Pecora,Maura Frigo,G. Ardizzone,A. Arrigo,R. Pellicci,Mario Baraldi +13 more
TL;DR: The up-regulation of PBRs found in HCC tissue seems to indicate an increased functional activity of these receptors and opens up the possibility of new pharmacological and diagnostic approaches while the changes in the circulating endogenous ligands for the above receptors might be envisaged as early markers of tumorigenesis in liver cirrhosis.
