ISSN: 1365-2826Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: The present experiments examined the role of the two recently identified angiotensin II (Ang II) receptor subtypes, AT, and AT2, in the central nervous system regulation of luteinizing hormone (LH) and prolactin secretion in estrogen- and progesterone-treated ovariectomized rats. In this animal model, intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of Ang II stimulates LH and inhibits prolactin release. The specific Ang II receptor subtype antagonists losartan (AT1) or PD123177 (AT2) were administered (icv) in various doses (10 ng to 1,000 ng) 10 min prior to icv injection of Ang II (100 ng). Control animals were pretreated with artificial cerebrospinal fluid prior to Ang II administration. Blood samples for LH and prolactin determinations were taken from conscious, freely-moving rats prior to and following injection of the antagonists and Ang II. Water intake was measured.Ang ll-induced water intake was attenuated 62% by 1,000 ng losartan; water intake was not affected by lower doses of losartan or by any dose of PD123177. Ang ll-induced stimulation of LH release was abolished by the 1,000 ng doses of losartan and PD123177 and attenuated by the 500 ng doses of both drugs. Lower doses did not affect Ang ll-induced LH secretion. Ang ll-induced inhibition of prolactin release was significantly reduced by the 1,000 ng doses of both losartan and PD123177. Lower doses of either drug did not affect the Ang II inhibition of prolactin release.Previous studies had shown that Ang II administration into the anterior hypothalamus-medial preoptic (AHPO) area stimulated LH release. This brain area contains AT1 receptors. To investigate the potential brain site where the AT2 receptor may influence LH release, Ang II was injected into the locus ceruleus, a brain nucleus which contains predominately the AT2 receptor subtype. Ang II administration into the locus ceruleus was paired with an injection of artificial cerebrospinal fluid or Ang II into the AHPO area.Injection of Ang II into the AHPO area stimulated LH release. Injection into the locus ceruleus did not affect LH secretion, nor did it modify the rise in LH elicited by administration of Ang II into the AHPO area. Plasma levels of prolactin were not altered by any of these injections.Taken together, these data demonstrate that, in estrogen- and progesterone-treated female rats, icv Ang ll-induced water intake is mediated by the AT, receptor subtype, while Ang ll-induced changes in LH and prolactin secretion appear to be mediated by both the AT2 and AT2 receptor subtypes. The latter observations are one of the first suggesting a potential function for the AT2 subtype in vivo, although the physiological relevance of this observation, as well as the site of action for the effects on LH and prolactin, remain to be established.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-1998Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Abstract This is a report of a family with major focus on the daughter who was of short stature. The mother had hypochondroplasia and the father had multiple exostoses. The daughter's skeletal roentgenograms show features of both hypochondroplasia and multiple exostoses. The roentgenographic, clinical and genetic aspects of these keletal dysplasias are reviewed and hypochondroplasia is contrasted with achondroplasia. The genetic and counseling implications of the association of hypochondroplasia and multiple exostoses are discussed.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-1939Keywords: Key words Open populations ; Density dependence ; Population regulation ; Recruitment limitation ; Reef fishesSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: BiologyNotes: Abstract Input of individuals dispersing into open populations can be highly variable, yet the consequences of such variation for subsequent population densities are not well understood. I explored the influence of variable input (”supply”) on subsequent densities of juveniles and adults in open local populations of two temperate reef fishes, the bluebanded goby (Lythrypnus dalli) and the blackeye goby (Coryphopterus nicholsii). Variable recruitment was simulated by stocking a natural range of densities of young fishes on replicate patch reefs. Density and mortality of the stocked cohorts were followed over time, until the fishes reached maturity. Over the first day of the experiments, mortality of both species was significantly density-dependent; however, there was still a very strong relationship between density on day 1 and density on day 0 (i.e., simulated recruitment was still an excellent predictor of population density). At this point in the study, the main effects of density-dependent mortality were to reduce mean densities and variation about the mean. Over the period from the start of the experiments until the time when maturity was reached by each species (about 1 and 3 months for Lythrypnus and Coryphopterus, respectively), mortality was strongly density-dependent. Such strong density-dependent mortality virtually eliminated any linear relationship between adult density and ”recruit” density. However, for both species, the relationship between these two variables was well fit by an asymptotic curve, with the asymptotic density of adults equal to c. 3/m2 for Coryphopterus, and c. 10/m2 for Lythrypnus. Natural recruitment (via settlement of larvae) to the reefs over the period of the study (9 months) was above the asymptotic densities of adults for the two species, even though the study did not encompass the periods of peak annual recruitment of either species. This suggests that adult populations of these two gobies may often be limited, and regulated, by post-settlement processes, rather than by input of settlers. Other studies have shown that mortality of the two species is density-independent, or only weakly density-dependent, on reefs from which predators have been excluded. Hence, it appears that predators cause density-dependent mortality in these fishes.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
