The immunohistochemical demonstration of NOS-immunoreactivity and its histochemical marker, NADPH-diaphorase activity in many neurons of the hypothalamus, suggest that NO plays a role in controlling the production and/or release of hypothalamic neuroendocrine peptides. In the present study, the expression of NOS in the enkephalin and dynorphin systems of the rat hypothalamus was examined by the combined method of the NADPH-diaphorase histochemistry and the immunocytochemistry of methionine enkephalin (M-Enk) or dynorphin B (Dyn-B). About 6 to 9% of M-Enk immunoreactive neurons in the paraventricular, arcuate and ventromedial nuclei expressed NADPH-diaphorase activity. Dyn-B immunoreactive neurons, however, showed NADPH-diaphorase activity in high ratio (37%-84%) in the supraoptic nucleus and the parvocellular and magnocellular paraventricular nucleus. These results revealed that a part of the enkephalin and dynorphin neurons in the rat hypothalamus have the ability to produce NO. The high ratio of expression of NO in magnocellular neurosecretory dynorphin containing neurons suggested that NO participates in controlling posterior pituitary hormone secretion together with dynorphin.</p>","PeriodicalId":19249,"journal":{"name":"Nihon Naibunpi Gakkai zasshi","volume":"70 8","pages":"967-78"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1507/endocrine1927.70.8_967","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18536611","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, the kinetic study of ovarian GnRH receptor was performed using 125I-labelled buserelin and crude ovarian cell membrane fraction of PMS-treated rats. The Scatchard analysis revealed the specific high affinity and low capacity ovarian GnRH receptor (Kd = 0.92 nM and Bmax = 0.57 fmol/mg tissue). The FSH-stimulated cholesterol side chain cleavage enzyme (CSCC) activity of the DES-treated rats was suppressed in a dose-dependent manner by buserelin. Estradiol release and aromatase activity were increased by 10(-8) M buserelin within 48 hours from the beginning of the incubation of the PMS-treated rat ovarian cells, but were suppressed after 48 hours. Buserelin increased basal progesterone secretion and both activities of CSCC and of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase of PMS-treated rat ovarian cells incubated without hCG, which were suppressed by buserelin co-incubated with 100 IU/ml of hCG.

Antibodies to exogenous insulin sometimes cause clinical symptoms of insulin resistance, allergy, and local lipoatrophy. Although the frequency of these complications has diminished with the use of highly purified porcine insulin or recombinant human insulin, there are some patients with high titer of IA. Autoantibodies to insulin (IAA) are also described. IAA has been reported to be in association with both insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and polyendocrine autoimmune disease. For many years these antibodies have been measured by radiobinding assay (RBA) in which the complexes are precipitated non-specifically by polyethylene glycol. In the present study we developed a rapid and quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method for measuring IA and IAA using recombinant human insulin antigen. We applied this method to the samples obtained from patients with diabetes mellitus and autoimmune thyroid disease and then compared the results with those obtained from the RBA method. The calibration curve for ELISA was derived from the dilution curve of a single serum from a patient positive for insulin antibody, and the results were expressed arbitrarily as ELISA UNIT. The calibration curve was approximately linear on the log-log scale within the range of 0.1-2.0 at optical density (OD)450nm, (6.25-200 ELISA UNIT). The intra-assay (CV = 2.3-3.1%) and inter-assay (CV = 2.8-7.2%) precisions were acceptable. Recovery rate varied from 74.5% to 118.5% and dilution experiments showed good linearity. Specificity was demonstrated by substituting purified human IgG for the test serum and glucagon for insulin. Except for hemoglobin, coexisting substances in serum had almost no effect on ELISA. The range of ELISA UNIT (Mean +/- SD) of 83 normal sera was 12.7 +/- 4.6. Positivity for IA by ELISA (> normal Mean + 3SD) was 11 out of 58 (19.0%) and 26 out of 55 (47.3%) in patients with IDDM and with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) who were treated with insulin, respectively. Positivity for IAA by ELISA was 5 out of 173 (2.8%) and 1 out of 20 (5.0%) in patients with NIDDM without insulin therapy and hyperthyroidism due to Graves' disease, respectively. However, by RBA, we detected 4 other cases positive for IAA in NIDDM without insulin therapy and one case in Graves' disease.

However, we occasionally experience patients who show a discrepancy between free thyroid hormones and TSH values, and the assessment of thyroid function in such cases is extremely difficult. Thyroid hormone autoantibodies (THAA) interfere with radioimmunoassay (RIA) of FT4 and FT3 by giving inappropriate values. To investigate the incidence of THAA, immune precipitation of patients' sera after incubation with labelled T4 (125I-T4) or T3 (125I-T3) analog tracer was done in 394 patients with thyroid diseases. 9 patients (2.3%) showed an increased binding of 125I-T4 or 125I-T3 analog. Heterophilic antimouse antibodies in a patient's serum (human antimouse immunoglobulin antibodies: HAMA) can interfere in two-site immunometric assays (IMA) using mouse monoclonal antibodies and result in spuriously increased serum TSH concentrations. Manufacturers now customarily add nonspecific mouse immunoglobulins into their assay kits to absorb HAMA and prevent such interference. This approach may not always be enough to prevent HAMA interference in all samples. In 14 thyrotoxic patients with inappropriately high TSH measured by an IMA kit, we measured the levels of TSH by the further addition of mouse serum into this kit. Their serum TSH levels were fully suppressed except for 2 patients with a syndrome of inappropriate secretion of TSH (SITSH). The presence of abnormal albumin in the serum also interferes with RIA of FT4 and FT3. We experienced a female case of Graves' disease treated with methimazole who showed an inappropriately high serum FT3 measured by an analog tracer RIA kit, whose serum FT4, FT3 and TSH were 1.31 ng/dl, 19.3 pg/ml and 1.9 mu U/ml respectively. Although the anti-T3 autoantibody was considered to be present initially, immune precipitation of her serum with 125I-T3 analog tracer gave a negative result. In order to elucidate this finding, Sephadex-G200 chromatography of her serum after incubation with 125I-T3 analog tracer was done. Radioactivity of her serum in albumin fraction was significantly higher than that of normal control serum to indicate the presence of abnormal albumin in the serum.

The aim of this study was to clarify the influences of maternal nutritional states or metabolism on the IGF-I concentrations in normal and abnormal pregnancy. In normal pregnant women, a significant positive correlation was indicated between serum IGF-I concentrations and maternal weight gain during pregnancy or serum triglyceride levels, and a significant negative correlation was observed between serum IGF-I concentrations and serum total protein levels. In the cases complicated with hyperemesis or hyperthyroidism during early gestation, a marked reduction of maternal body weight was observed, and serum IGF-I concentration was extremely low compared with that in normal pregnant women, but serum IGF-I levels gradually increased as the maternal body weight recovered after treatment by intravenous hyperalimentation or an anti-thyroid drug. In cases of severe toxemia of pregnancy, maternal weight gain and serum triglyceride levels were markedly increased, but serum IGF-I levels were significantly lower compared with those in normal pregnant women in the same gestational age. In severe toxemia of pregnancy, there was no significant correlation between serum IGF-I levels and maternal weight gain or serum triglyceride levels, and these results may be influenced by such abnormalities as water retention, hemoconcentration, severe hypoproteinemia and severe negative nitrogen balance not found in normal pregnancy.

The diabetic patients were separated into four groups: Group 0, diabetic patients without neuropathy or nephropathy; Group I, those with neuropathy without nephropathy; Group II, those without neuropathy with nephropathy; Group III, those with neuropathy and nephropathy.
