[Effect of melanostatin on the central nervous system]. 1983

N E Chepurnova, and V M Borzenkov, and S A Chepurnov

The effect of melanostatin (MIF), L-DOPA and morphine on the behaviour and electrical activity in the neocortex and lymbic structures in rats has been strudied. All substances were administered intraventricularly. There was a recorded increase of the energy of the delta and theta slow waves in the hypothalamus, amygdala and neocortex and also of the energy of the alfa waves in the amygdala and neocortex. In addition the administration of L-DOPA and morphine facilitated the effect of MIF while preliminary administration of MIF blocked the effect of morphine given in threshold doses.

D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D004295 Dihydroxyphenylalanine A beta-hydroxylated derivative of phenylalanine. The D-form of dihydroxyphenylalanine has less physiologic activity than the L-form and is commonly used experimentally to determine whether the pharmacological effects of LEVODOPA are stereospecific.
