[Existence of neurotensin receptors in the caudate nucleus and posterior hypothalamus]. 1982

N F Suvorov, and P K Klimov, and A F Iakimovskii, and A A Fokina, and G M Barashkova

Chronic experiments in dogs revealed that administration of neurotensin (3 and 10 mkg in 1.5 mkl) into the caudate nucleus altered the parameters of conditioned and unconditioned food reflexes: shortened the latency by 31% and augmented the reflexes by 56%. The microapplication of neurotensin in the same dosage into the posterior hypothalamus increased the stomach secretory function induced by histamine administration. The caudate nucleus and the hypothalamus seem to contain cells which have the receptors for neurotensin and take part in the mechanisms of conditioning and central influences on the digestive system's organs.

D007031 Hypothalamus Ventral part of the DIENCEPHALON extending from the region of the OPTIC CHIASM to the caudal border of the MAMMILLARY BODIES and forming the inferior and lateral walls of the THIRD VENTRICLE. Lamina Terminalis,Preoptico-Hypothalamic Area,Area, Preoptico-Hypothalamic,Areas, Preoptico-Hypothalamic,Preoptico Hypothalamic Area,Preoptico-Hypothalamic Areas
D007034 Hypothalamus, Posterior The part of the hypothalamus posterior to the middle region consisting of several nuclei including the medial maxillary nucleus, lateral mammillary nucleus, and posterior hypothalamic nucleus (posterior hypothalamic area). The posterior hypothalamic area is concerned with control of sympathetic responses and is sensitive to conditions of decreasing temperature and controls the mechanisms for the conservation and increased production of heat.

D008297 Male Males
D009496 Neurotensin A biologically active tridecapeptide isolated from the hypothalamus. It has been shown to induce hypotension in the rat, to stimulate contraction of guinea pig ileum and rat uterus, and to cause relaxation of rat duodenum. There is also evidence that it acts as both a peripheral and a central nervous system neurotransmitter.

D011956 Receptors, Cell Surface Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.
