Characterization and localization of arginine vasotocin receptors in the brain and kidney of an amphibian

Creator:: Boyd, Sunny K.
Abstract:: Because arginine vasotocin (AVT) activates male sexual behaviors in the rough-skinned newt (Taricha granulosa), quantitative autoradiography with radiolabelled arginine vasopressin (³H-AVP) was used to localize and characterize putative AVT receptors in the brain of this amphibian. Binding of ³H-AVP to sites within the medial pallium was saturable, specific, reversible, of...

Isolation and characterization of a larval crustacean salt gland from the brine shrimp Artemia salina

Creator:: Lowy, Robert Joel
Abstract:: A method for isolating the salt gland (SG) from the larval brine shrimp has been developed. This extra-renal organ is removed from 5-10% of Stage Inauplii by vortexing after incubating the animals at 37°C for 8 hours in a saline solution buffered with 100 mM sodium phosphate at pH 7.6....

Identification and characterization of vasotocin and mesotocin peptides and receptors

Creator:: Searcy, Brian T.
Abstract:: The neurohypophysial peptide system is involved in modulating a variety of physiological, neurological, and behavioral responses in vertebrates. The principal forms of these peptides in non-mammalian tetrapods are vasotocin (VT) and mesotocin (MT). The studies described in this thesis used pharmacological, molecular, and biochemical techniques, along with phylogenetic analyses, to...

The role of perinatal androgens in the development of neuroendocrine and behavioral characteristics of the gray-tailed vole, Microtus canicaudus

Creator:: Spielvogel, Sandra Petersen
Abstract:: These studies examined the role of perinatal androgen in the development of neuroendocrine and behavioral characteristics of gray-tailed voles, Microtus canicaudus. When mature, females exhibited alternating vaginal smear patterns or persistent vaginal cornification; estrogen and progesterone concentrations were not correlated with vaginal smear patterns. Corpora lutea were not observed in...

The role of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone in the neuroendocrine control of seasonal reproduction in male rough-skinned newts, Taricha granulosa

Creator:: Zoeller, Robert T.
Abstract:: One hypothesis proposed to explain how the endocrine system controls reproductive cycles in seasonally breeding animals is that the hypothalamus undergoes seasonal changes in sensitivity to negative feedback by gonadal steroids. The result is seasonal changes in the secretion of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) and gonadotropin secretion. The present experiments...

Neuroendocrine mechanisms that regulate context-dependent behavioral responses to acute stress

Creator:: Coddington, Emma
Abstract:: In nature, animals survive threats by responding physiologically and behaviorally in ways that are appropriate to the situation. Which responses are appropriate depend on the animals' surroundings and current physiological and behavioral state. This dissertation investigated the neuroendocrine mechanisms that control context-dependent behavioral responses to stress by focusing on the...
