This review covers the regulation of serotonin synthesis in serotonergic neurons of the central
nervous system over the short term, that is minutes to hours, as opposed to days or weeks. …

Exposure of male Sprague-Dawley rats to acute sound stress (2 s, 110 dB sound pulses
presented randomly every minute for 1 h) increases the in vitro activity of cortical and midbrain …

ANGIOTENSIN interacts with the sympathetic nervous system. Among the interactions
which have been described are stimulation of ganglion cells 1,3 , central activation of the …

The light microscopic histochemical method for the demonstration of monoamine oxidase
depends upon the reduction of a tetrazolium salt to a dark colored insoluble formazan by the …

Exposure of male Fischer 344 rats to an acute sound stress consisting of 100 dB tones of 2-s
duration presented at random 60-s intervals for 2 h, increased cortical and midbrain …

Sound stress (SS) (120-dB pulses of 100 ms duration, every min for 1 h) produces an
elevation of in vitro cortical or midbrain tryptophan hydroxylase activity from male Sprague-Dawley …

The activity of tryptophan hydroxylase in a low speed supernatant preparation from rat thalamus,
midbrain and medulla pons. assayed in the presence of subsaturating concentrations of …

Estimates of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) turnover in response to 30 min of inescapable,
randomly presented, loud sound (sound stress) were obtained for regions of rat brain containing …

Non-endocrine corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is believed to be involved in mediating
stress behaviors in rats. The present study investigated the role of CRF in mediating the …

Addition of CaCl 2 to soluble preparations of tyrosine hydroxylase from rat medulla pons
produces a marked activation of the enzyme assayed with subsaturating concentrations of …
